I took the easy way first by typing "executor". It was doing fine, and made it to the splash screen, where I went and typed in my numbers. After this Executor modified itself and then went to the prompt, just like it's supposed to. BUT on the second running ( I did - nosplash but have tried it with and with out the following starts right after the splash screen if it's enabled) then executor starts bloating and sits there and swaps. I killed it at 25mb (had top running). I've tried executor with a variaty of switches and it still eats all of the available memory + swap up, and then crashed when it runs out. It never makes it to GO even. My system: 486-66, Linux 1.2.10, Xf86 3.1.1, fvwm... The problem that irrates me so is that 1.99m worked great (and SLOW) which was why I was sl looking forward the the X and video improvements of 1.99n Well that's about it, Ian ************************************************************************* *Ian Spielman * *ispielman@aardvark.ucs.uoknor.edu * * "[Franklin] invented electricity by rubbing cats backwards and * * declared 'a horse divided against itself cannot stand.' * * Franklin died in 1790 and is still dead" * *************************************************************************
