Hi Kevin,
I saw your autocad bug report. I will try to duplicate it myself, but I
don't know what, if anything I can do about it. First of all, it is
possible that the problem is caused by remotely displaying onto a NetBSD
box. AutoCAD needs drivers for display, and as far as I can tell, those
drivers are particular about the hardware and the X server on which they
display.
Secondly, I agree that it shouldn't crash no matter much. However,
considering that AutoDesk is desupporting UNIX - Release 13 is the last
release which will run on any UNIX platform - I doubt that I can get
them to respond to this one.
