Of course I will, but it might take a bit of time. We have a fairly small installation (about 24 Sunray stations) and the problem happens only sometimes and to some people. My guess is that it might actually be connected to the xscreensaver settings of the user. It happened about six times during the first three weeks of January after upgrading the server to the latest Solaris 10 release but it has not happened during the last week. So I have to wait for the next occurence. But even if it only happens sometimes, if it happens to somebody who was running a long Mathematica or Matlab calculation and cannot get to their results, people are understandably not very happy.
