The "beep" when I try to do something when Arachne is busy is fine with me; it tells me Arachne hasn't crashed even though it seems to have done so with some complex page renditions. <G> The beeps I'm talking about have only been happening since 1.69 ... I'm not touching a thing, only thing working is Arachne internal programs, but I continue to get beeps [apparently as Arachne changes from one thing to the next???]. At one point I thought maybe it could be a full cache or full disk, but checking and clearing did not make any difference. l.d. ==== On Fri, 26 Jan 2001 18:08:54 +0100, Bernie <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > L.D wrote: >> ON ANOTHER NOTE: Has anyone, other than I, found that they are getting >> system beep during certain page & graphics processing?
