[comp.sys.next] Bugs in next os + questions

Hi out there. I have noticed the following bugs due
to internal next errors or due to my ignorance:

1) when you boot up the system, and accidentally try
to decrease/increase the intensity of the screen while
booting, somehow the system  doesn't allow the user after his
login to
go to some specified intensity level, but rather chooses to
go at maximum intensity. Imagine that, the computer having
more will and power than the user!

2) when you do: 
playscore -f BachFugue,
and then maybe play with the sound player, and or
invoke ensemble, it seems that the dsp loses something.

more specifically: usually after ensemble or BachFugue the 
dsp refuses to play another score file, completely. 
Usually the pill is cpu reset, unfortunately.  It is,moreover,
not certain when the dsp will decide not to play a sound file
or a score, but i am positive that it is after ensemble or
-f at playscore.

3) the ensemble sound has spikes. has any one else heard of that?

It may also be the stupid current conductors in our dorm, but there
is a surge protector at the end of the computer

Any advice will be appreciated.  if the above are true I will
post any e-mail replied to the net
