starting xdm or kdm seems to log the following
/kernel: sigreturn: efllags = 0x13213
but this behavior has only happened recently. The workstations are
installed over ftp and older versions of 4.3 ( early June ) do not
exibit this behaviour. Hope some one can sort this one out for me
as it's all supposed to go live September.
