** The same note entered both to DECWINDOWS and FIREFOX conferences ** One of our customers has problem with FIREFOX 8 planes. He is using VMS 5.2 + DECWINDOWS on a cluster. From time to time the DECWINDOWS server on the FIREFOX hangs. No response from the window system. You can continue working in a SET HOST or LAT session. When that happens, he tries to restart DECWINDOWS (by the command @DECW$STARTUP RESTART). It fails with a message like "Fail to allocate KEYBOARD, device allocated to another user" or something similar. When doing SHOW SYSTEM the old decw$server process do NOT appear. The only solution is to reboot the FIREFOX. There are no problems on the other VAXSTATIONs of the same cluster. Is it a known problem with the DECW$SERVER on the FIREFOX? Is it fixed under VMS 5.3/DECW 2? Thanks in advance Ofer Gan
