Yes, several people told me this.  Thanks for the info.  Should possibly be the 
default as
suggested by others.

I filed bug 1669, which is now reproducible by running Device Driver Utility,
clicking on Help, closing DDU window, then closing Help window.

It occurs every time I login the first time after boot, but only if I login
too soon after desktop login screen appears.  If I wait about 1 minutes after
login screen appears and then login, the problem does not occur.

I have filed bug 1681.  This problem also only occurs on first login after boot
and also only if I login right away after desktop login screen appears.  Again,
waiting a minute or so before logging in prevents the problem from occurring.
I disconnected my floppy drive but it didn't make any difference.
