  11. I'm running epoch 4.1 on a Sparc 2, OS 4.1.1 with X11R4 under motif.
  12. I have two windows, the Minibuffer and a working window, arranged vertically
  13. the working window against the top of the screen, the Minibuffer against the
  14. bottom of the screen and a little space in between the two.
  15.  
  16. Every once in a while, while I'm typing in epoch, a rectangular area,
  17. containing both epoch windows, AND THE BACKGROUND IN BETWEEN THE TWO WINDOWS,
  18. is erased and the keyboard and mouse are rendered ineffective.  After 10 or 20
  19. seconds the X window system disappears and I'm logged off of the Sun.
  20. A core dump of XSun is left in my home directory.
  21.  
  22. adb prints the following call trace:
  23. core file = core -- program ``Xsun''
  24. SIGSEGV 11: segmentation violation
