Hello,
I have been unable to duplicate the problem you reported with AutoCAD
not starting from Dash. However, I am confused about one thing, and that
is that your bug report was sent from the athena dialup machine which
allows X connections. Were you running Dash off of the dialup machine
and redisplaying back to another workstation? That probably won't
work very well, as Dash thinks that it is running on a DECstation but
starting software on the local machine type.
If this is indeed the situation, do other applications work correctly
for you?
