"no buffer space available" on Win2K

[Harold L Hunt II]

Karl,

This is the first time I have ever heard of such an error.

Could you please elaborate on where you recieve this error?  Is it a 
popup window?  If so, please include the full text.  Is it in 
/tmp/XWinrl.log or /tmp/XWin.log?  If so, please include the full text 
of that file.  Is it at a command prompt?  If so, which program 
generated the error and what was its text?

With more info we may be able to help.

Harold
