I don't have another system available, hence my other posting yesterday
asking others to try it out. I am using Linux 2.0.28, Accelerated X with
X11 R6, on a Thinkpad 760ed with a Trident video card. This only started
happening with 0.84, happens after running the demo two or three times
consecutively, and only happens when the fl_set_xyplot_data function is
used - I have found no other function that provokes it - but physically
occurs when the fl_do_forms function is called after setting xyplot data.
I realize this is quite possibly a server problem - but want to ensure
that I have covered all bases before attempting to report this to X Inside
- who are not renowned for their helpfulness.
