System name:		m4-035-19
Type and version:	POWER 7.4H
Display type:		graygda

What's wrong:
	If I keep the mouse still and press space to go to the next
transaction, frequently (but not always) xdsc does not update the window
until I move the mouse.  So I could press space, wait several minutes
while it appears nothing is happening, and then move the mouse, and instantly
the window would show the next article.
	I haven't seen this before, and speculate the bug only occurs
on the RS6000s.  Usually I avoid RS6000s like the plague, so this
could just be another silly quirk to add to my list of reasons to
avoid RS6000s.
