Does anyone have any ideas on what might be causing a crash of Ultrix 4.2 (just installed) on a 5000PX with the following message: bad c_page locks held by cpu 0 print locks held by non-active process This has happened twice in two days now. Both times I was running Saber-C, it loaded my program and started it up, then right after I pressed a button which leads to a couple of vfork()'s and exec's, the whole system crashed, with the above message. But I have also run my program under Saber successfully, both before and after the crashes. So it does not seem to be a reproducible crash. There are also a number of other users, so conceivably it has nothing to do with Saber. By the way, after the first crash, fsck found *alot* of problems, and ended up trashing several files (and probably more that we have not found yet) including /etc/passwd. -- Matt -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- = Matthew M.
