Hi Erwin,

When I read the msg you're answering here I tought I was lucky
because that wasn't happening to me. So far I'd only noticed a certain
degree of instability: Calmira now crashes from time to time, and
sometimes it freezes. The "last chance" Ctrl+Alt+Del stops calmira, but
leaves (should I say luckily?) windows behind. Double clicking on the
desktop brings out a dialog that says "Calmira is not running" and brings
about the old windows task manager. On task manager I can exit less
painfully from the other programs. I _use_ Calmira as the shell (can't do
without it anymore ;-), and I've nearly forgotten how you go about in
progman <LOL> .
But coming back to the point, I did find the descript.ion problem a few
days later after I had installed the new upgrade, but _only_ if I try to
move or copy to a floppy. What happens is that the files do get copied or
moved, but descript.ion does not get adjourned. The only way round I've
found... use IFA to insert description (or copy/move).
All is well with copying and/or moving on the hard disks. I wonder: why
such a weird behavior?
Ciao, Mario
