One way to track this down, if it's that repeatable for everyone, would be to open another terminal window, get the pid of the program that's going to do this, and then: truss -p <pid> | grep "Resource temp" ...or just let it run to completion, and you'll get some context, too, in your scrollback buffer. Knowing what system call is failing would be very helpful toward tracking the problem down. -- Terry
