  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.
