Without memory protection. I am trying to test it with memory protection
but I am having so many other problems that this is difficult. The main
problem is that my TT seems to freeze after a day or two when memory
protection is enabled (I mentioned this on this mailing list some months
ago but nobody seemed to have any good ideas).

It is also slow although I can put up with that.

With memory protection enabled I did find that uuxqt crashed once with
memory violation accessing address 9. A few hours later the freeze
occured...

Am I the only one who has all these problems with memory protection? I
would like to use memory protection if it worked better.
