  That was it.

This morning, I re-ran 'make install' from the 1.3.2 directory.  So far,
it's been stable, but it is also exibiting the behavior of only displaying
some of the messages in the lower left corner.  On my desktop install
(Suse 8.1), that box is never blank.  It either displays the call of the
most recent packet, or my own station ID.  On the SuSE9.1 laptop, its most
often blank, only occasionally displaying my call or another.  I have
never seen a 'tactical' callsign displayed, nor the 'connected to
....server' which appears upon interface startup on the desktop.
  It's not ignoring packets, however.  When a new WX icon appears on the
map with a tactical callsign, the callsign message is blank, but the
station count in the third box does get incremented, and the station does
get displayed on the map.
