I'd really like to resolve this issue. .. I'm upgrading the box to new userspace now. But I still have the old installation drive, so perhaps I'll go there now and try this. My plan is to replace /usr/bin/ir-keytable with a script that issues the 'ulimit -c unlimited' command and then invokes the original /usr/bin/ir-keytable binary. Should take half an hour or so before I get back here again. -ml
