[MiNT] 1.15.9b problems

["Martin "Nightowl" Byttebier" <tos4ever@online.be>]

Hello,

I've used the 1.15.9b kernel a few days in non memory protection mode. 
During that periode I ran into some problems which I can't reproduce 
however.

1) Some progs like Qed 4.53, Everest 3.6Eb and aFTP 1.55b dies sometimes 
   (not very often) with an 'illegal instruction' warning. This happens 
   mostly when I drag/drop a file to an already open application.
   For example a few days ago aFTP died at the moment I dropped a few 
   files on the aFTP window. I could relaunch aFTP but drag/drop didn't 
   work anymore. I'd to use the fileselector to select the files I wanted 
   to upload. Even then aFTP died once.
   
2) I also noticed that mails I've prepared but not send yet get currupted 
   on some rare occassions when I re-edited them. For some reason when I 
   save the text again all the old unchanged lines are replaced by two 
   beta-signs/line. However the changed or newly added lines are good. I 
   use Everest as editor for the mailer Okami 2.1B-13.
    
Furthermore during the few days I've used 1.15.9b I've had three 
unexplicable system freezes. All three occured when I was moving around 
desktop and/or program windows. This reminds me to the problems I'd with 
the standard N_AES settings.

With previous beta kernels I never have had this kind of problems.

One positive note to end. From kernel 1.15.8b on the French browser 
Wensuite doesn't create a ghost dir (nameless dir) anymore.

HTH,
Martin
