Yeah, that happens. It can definitely be frustrating, especially since |
9 |
because you don't know what caused it, you haven't the foggiest whether |
10 |
it'll be back and when. =8^( However, I've come to the conclusion that |
11 |
sometimes you just don't look that horse in the mouth, and chances are, |
12 |
it'll be your trusty steed for some time. =8^) |

BTW, had a list connectivity glitch and didn't get this reply tacked on |

your last post, but re: Irix/Solaris mode, it seems the manpage says the |
16 |
reverse of what it actually does. Having never used either of the named |
17 |
platforms, I can't say whether the manpage or the app is correct in what |
18 |
it claims for the modes, but yes, Irix mode ON seems to result in what |
19 |
the manpage calls Solaris mode, while Irix mode OFF results in what the |
20 |
manpage calls Irix mode. So at least that part isn't unique to your |
21 |
(old) system, as that's the way it works here as well. |
