Since I installed GOMF 2.0 in my system, it has been popping up with "68000 exception vector" messages at various times. This has happened with DME 1.29, typically when doing block copies or moves. When I moved the GOMF installation to a later point in my startup-sequence, most of the occurences disappeared, but I still get it when moving a block from one window to another (and maybe copying... can't seem to duplicate that one). It also occured with v26 of AMIC PD TERM, when exiting, unless I switched fonts. Now I'm using v28e, which uses another font on startup, so I don't know (haven't tested) if the problem is still there or is simply circumvented by the font switch. Given that I don't get errors or GURUs if I don't install GOMF, what's the significance of this exception vector corruption? Is GOMF being too picky, or is this something that could cause a problem under certain circumstances?

By the way, where did you get GOMF 2.0 from? I didn't even know it was released; neither Abel Supply nor GO Amigo has it. Did you order GOMF 2.0 directly from Hypertek?
