Could you add some punctuation here? I'm having trouble figuring out
if you mean that it hangs half the time you try to use it and the note
always gets blown away in this case, or if half of the times it does
hang and you kill it the note gets blown away.

How do you restart it? do you run the above command by hand and then
adjust the fontsize? do you just run rlogin hector in an xterm, and
adjust the fontsize? Something else?
Note that since it is my understanding htat you guys are working to
replace notes, I really don't want to put too much effort into
debugging this.
