Never mind : ) I decided to reload nv40 from scratch. The last time I did an
upgrade install (from nv38 to nv39 and nv39 to nv40). This time, I did a
initial install and the problem has gone away. I'm guessing that something (?)
changed between nv 38 and nv39 that was not changed with an upgrade

I think they are not even looking to do that... since it is very complicated,
time consuming - much easier: confuse the world with Linux, sign

This is partially true, to the extent that you will have a salad of operating

Large shops have these

No major IBM's SW had been open sourced, as far as I know. Last I checked, AIX
5L was still a closed product that cost money, on top of the expensive IBM
Power CPU based hardware.
I wanted to get the lowest cost 1U Power based server to
