[Xastir] object display problems

Hey--

Just another angle on this problem, in the terminal I get an error 
message when the interface is brought up:

Couldn't open config/CAD_object.log file for reading!
interface.c:channel_data(1):Warning:This thread already has the lock on 
this resource

I think the config/CAD warning happens when the program starts up, but I 
can't be sure.

Thanks for your help.
