Could you check the logs on wslogger and/or the logs (both the X
server logs and /usr/adm/msgs logs) on this workstation and see if
there's any indication of what happened here (e.g., the X server ran
out of memory and crashed, the workstation panic'd, or something).

Subject: decmips 7.4G: windows
Date: Fri, 10 Jul 92 14:46:22 EDT
System name: test-5000
Type and version: KN02ca 7.4G
Display type: PMAG-DV
What were you trying to do?
I was replying to email using repl, and wanted to send a zwrite. I
clicked on an unused portion of the screen to get the window which pops
up, and selected the New Window option. I knew from previous experience
that 'repl &' did not work as 'emacs &' does, so I did not have access to my
xterm window.
What's wrong:
The machine rebooted immediately!
What should have happened:
I should have gotten another xterm window, and I should not have
been rebooted!
Please describe any relevant documentation references:
