System name:		PAL16
Type and version:	VAXSTAR 7.2R
Display type:		SM

What were you trying to do?
   login to PAL17

What's wrong:
   The "Press any key" message was up.  I pressed a key, and the xlogin
window appeared.  However, the only thing in the form widget besides
some rectangular outlines was a pair of blinking eyes (without the rest
of the owl, that is!)
   Eventually (after 1/2 minute or so) the rest of the text appeared.
I let the "Press any key" message reappear and then hit a key again.
This time everything was there, except the owl was *furiously* blinking.
I logged in as root; no one else was there, and the load was normal.

What should have happened:
   The owl and the widget should have done the right thing (although it
was kind of cute the way it was).  It works fine now, though.

Please describe any relevant documentation references:
