System name:		athanatos
Type and version:	KN02ca 7.4H (1 update(s) to same version)
Display type:		PMAG-DV 

What were you trying to do?
	Run xess or xess2.0 out of the xess locker

What's wrong:
	(After add'ing xess)
	Nothing at all seemed to happen when I typed xess.  No window
	appeared, no errors.
	When I typed xess2.0 I got the "Starting Xess version 2.0" message,
	then nothing happened.
	
	For both xess and xess2.0 ps ux showed something like this:

belville 21574  0.5  5.4 2492 1020 p1 D      0:01 /mit/xess/.decmipsbin/xess20
belville 21573  0.0  0.8  364  136 p1 I      0:00 csh -f /mit/xess/decmipsbin/x

	but then those processes disappeared and xess never started.

What should have happened:
	xess should have started.

What's up?
