Hi!  Yes, I entered the ALPACA schematic completely by hand, from scratch, in 
EEschema.  I reannotated it once for the top half (Z80 SBC, CTC, SIO/0, IDE, 
etc) and assigned footprints with CVPCB to the components.  

Later on, I entered the bottom half (uPD7220) circuit in EEschema the same way 
and that's where the problems started.  I was able to fix the schematic by 
manually editting the file to replace the U?'s with the appropriate Uxx values.

There seems to be something funny going on with devices keeping their 
annotations in EEschema although I have no idea what.  If I am the only person 
seeing this anomaly then maybe it is something I am doing?  I pick and place 
each component separately without using cut and paste.

I hope this helps!  Thanks and have a nice day!

Andrew Lynch
