Paul Boutin let me know that the server software for RTs with
megapel boards has a bug: it lets the Xibm file grow and grow until
the machine holds no more data and crashes. We had an encounter with
this problem this morning in 7-012, where courseware for 2.51 failed
repeatedly on color RTs.
My purpose is to report this problem again, in case it has not
been reported, but also to learn whether somebody is working on it or
has fixed it.
Thanks for your help,
- Pete Ralston
