658.0. "dtsession: unable to lock display" by TAV02::GOVER (Kobi Gover) Mon Jun 02 1997 12:28

Hi,

We have a strange problem at a customer site.
one of the users has each couple of days a problem to login to the system
thru the console. 
we copy all the dt file + xdefaults from another user to his home dir,
than he can work fine but after a couple of days he tries to login, and 
the session is not started, he gets the "blue" screen, and in the
home dir in the .dt/errorlog he has

  dtsession: unable to lock display
             another application might be using ....

a reboot doesn't solve the problem.

any idea about this ?

thanks
kobi gover.
