- Are you using the binary from banjo? I have a feeling the binary was compiled
- with the soft math library, to accomodate everyone and that is the problem
- I pulled down the original sources from gatekeeper.dec.com and have
- a version compiled for the 486/33 on a system just like yours. My version
- has no problem on any function in it, including Color editing. If there is
- enough intrest, I will post it to banjo when the new X and GCC come out.
- If you or anyone else wants, you can just email me and I will send you my
- notes if you just want to compile it yourself.
