v43 picture datatype problem

I've installed the new beta (.718) of the v43 picture datatype yesterday,
and spent the whole of tonight trying to get my system running the way it
was before I installed it.

The first problem I came up against was when trying to change between a
cybergraphx screenmode and a "normal" Amiga one - after all the windows
were closed, the machine would lock up. After a lot of investigation ad
re-installation of cybergraphx libraries, datatypes and the like, I managed
to tie the problem down to the new picture datatype. Put the old one back
in (and put the clock back, as it has timed out), and I could change
screenmodes fine, put the new one back, and it locks up!

Ok, so now I really start fiddling - after a couple of hours, I've managed
to get the new one working, but only if I put the clock back - has it timed
out already?

I've now put the date change into my startup sequence, so at least it works
every time, but it's not an idea solution - has anyone else has similar
problems?

For info, I'm using the following:

picture.datatype 43.718
cybergraphics.library 40.90
cyberintuition.library 40.31
cyberlayers.library 40.8
