[comp.sys.sun] sunview 4.0 missing windows

eli@spdcc.com) (03/09/89)

often when i start up sunview, some of my windows never happen.  usually a
perfmeter or two is missing.  occasionally a shell is missing as well.

simply exiting suntools and restarting sometimes solves the problem -- but
usually it will lose yet a different window...

has this been discussed earlier?  has anyone else encountered this
bugfeature?

Steve writes about his windows not opening.  I've noticed this frequently
as well.  With me, it's always a perfmeter.  In my .suntools file, I have
a clock and three perfmeters as the first four tools.  It doesn't seem to
divide itself equally between the three perfmeters.  I always find a core
file in my home directory.

If anyone finds out what's going on, please let me know as well.
