The most probable reason is that your are starting the zephyr program
"zwgc" twice in your login sequence. If you are using the new .login
files then there should be no reference of zwgc in your .login or
.login.mine of zwgc as it is started up when one of the system-wide
initialization files are run. If you are using the old .login files then
there will only only one reference to zwgc in your .login file. To know
which one you have, I am including the *new* .login below. Hope that
helps.
