Dear sir,
m4-167-9.mit.edu seems to have a very strange problem with X.
You know what happens normally when the X server on a machine has been idle
for a certain amount of time. You get that big X on the screen and everthing
dissapears. Then you do something like click a mouse button or something
like that and everything comes back. Well, this machine just does the idle
X every few minutes although I am doing things with X. Then it takes it's
time coming back. I really have no idea what could cause something like this.
I saw the login window was really messed up, so I logged in to see what was
going on.
Sheldon
