-
- Recently my aux 3.0 system has started losing things like document and
- program icons, and disconnecting aliases left on the desktop.
-
- Rebuilding the desktop seems to help for a day or two, then icons revert
- to their generic form and creating applications can't be found.
-
- The system appears to work ok otherwise, and the only new inits are Applied
- Engineering's AE Shadow, and Suitcase II 2.0. (2.1.1 causes a prompt
- crash).
-
- Neither seems connected to desktop files, and the problem develops slowly
- enough that it'll be hard to find the culprit by elimination.
-
- If anybody knows what's going on please clue me in!
-
- thanks
