This is hardly a solution... I've noticed that my favorite DA, "Mr. Apple", causes more problems than just about any other. It killed Twilight, it kills SHRconvert... But I can't get rid of it 'cuase it's so CUTE... Perhaps we need a "spinning globe" sort of thing, as the main problem with Mr. Apple is it's palette switching. >-----------------------------------+------------------------------------------- >Vernon Lamont Williams | "All dogcows go to heaven" [rest of sig rm'd] -- Jawaid Bazyar | Blondes in big black cars look better wearing Senior/Computer Engineering | their dark sunglasses at night.

It was working fine earlier today and I added the writeit! DA and ran a cheap paint and whammo no more blanking. In my case it seems to have something to do with the CDEV realizing that it's time to blank. If I choose "Blank Now" from the control panel it blanks, but if I just wait for Twilight to kick in by itself it doesn't.
