	I have been unsuccessful troubleshooting a DS5000/133
	mouse/logout problem.

	Symptoms;
		After being logged in for 8 + hours, a mouse click
		on the root window will drop the window display.
		What I mean is, the monitor drops all images and
		the cursor drops to the lower left of the screen.

		I have seen this happen with a left and a right 
		mouse click.

		This has happened with both mwm and twm.

		This has not happened with the workstation logged into
		'service'

	Action Taken;
		Mouse has been swapped.

		SW has been reloaded.

		No errors in uerf.

		diags produce 0 errors.

		I have asked Laurie to have someone else in her dept
		stay logged in over night. Then see if the problem 
		persists. (she will do this tonight, 9-30).

	Contact is Laurie Kramer, 3-3054. Can you please give Laurie 
	a call. I am unable to determine the cause of this problem
	though I suspect it is her specific login. I am unable to prove
	this and convince Laurie.
