Ditto, except for more data points: rlogged in from either a Sun-3 any of a 4.[23] 750, a 4.3beta 8600, a 4.3 8600, or an Ultrix 2.0beta 8800. Also from a uvax ][ to either a 4.2 750 or a 4.3beta 8600. GNU version is 17.63, and there's at least one version of microEmacs that has the same problem. The problem seems occurs more often with longer windows, and rlogged in to faster hosts. I suspect a kernel bug, myself, but would be interested to see any solution. <mike
