What were you trying to do?

        See if there were hardware problems with the monitor, before
trying to log in here. I figured that one of the no-login choices from
the xlogin menus, such as "browse not-LUCY's answers", would be useful
for this.

What's wrong:

        The following appeared in the console window:

sh: /afs/athena.mit.edu/user/s/sao/scores/lucy.log: cannot create
sh: /afs/athena.mit.edu/user/s/sao/scores/lucy.log: cannot create

        I tried this again on another RT, and got the same errors.

What should have happened:

        Not sure. Maybe programs invoked from xlogin menus should not
depend on access to user home directories?

Please describe any relevant documentation references:
