Has anyone had any problems with the Info Explorer program dying out with a
memory
fault.
I've also noticed that it dies when selecting a particular command from the
command
tables list. E.G xinit.
In one instance I selected the command 'info' and program hung and just
consumed
loadsa CPU.
Is this a known problem (I'd hope not, otherwise IBM have problems) or should
I go back to
my supplier ?
Anyway heres my problem report.
Problem: Memory fault in /usr/bin/info
Program: /usr/bin/info
Symptom: garbage on the screen of normal terminal and error messages from
application, resulting in session hang.
Interface: Terminal.
Example:
Just typing 'info' at the command prompt, the screen will clear
and then start to put up what looks like a menu. Then characters
will start to be placed a odd positions on the screen.
Once the screen has stop updating hit the 'Return' key twice
then the following message will displayed on the screen.
/usr/bin/info: 10435 Memory fault: a Memory image file has been ...
The session is now hung.
Interface: Motif.
Following the same path of options the info windows disappear at
the same position of the fault.
