Tom and all,

It's 1.7.1 - but I was also running 1.8.x on Ubuntu/Kubuntu 6.10 native installs and it does the same thing - starts for the first time as a little box. It's no big deal, after you resize it, it restarts at a normal size from there on out. But if you are not expecting it, it's could be easy for a first-timer to miss - hence the note.

Go to www.vmware.com and download the free VMWare Player. Install on your windows machine.

Also on the VMWare site, download a virtual machine for Mepis Linux, Ubuntu Linux, or Kubuntu.

I just read through your write-up about this on the wiki.  You note that
the first time you start xastir, it starts up with a tiny window.

This was a bug in a relatively old version of xastir --- what version of
xastir are you getting by doing the apt-get?  It should not happen with any
of the 1.8.x versions, and probably only happened in one or two of the 1.7.x
versions.
