Known bugs

# Date Posted Version Information Description and Duplication Information
1 Fri Jan 31 1997 All The system will not zoom or teleport to an elevation (z value) between 0.0 and 0.1. Maximum elevation in the Canvas Operations dialog cannot be set below 10.0.
2 Fri Jan 31 1997 All The Cancel button has no effect in the Layer Manager Operations dialog.
3 Fri Feb 7 1997 All Portal clipping is inaccurate at certain elevations.
4 Mon Feb 24 1997 Linux If the system runs out of (virtual) memory, it will crash and may even hang your machine. This is a Linux bug.
5 Tue Apr 1 1997 Sun Solaris When navigating to a portal canvas the system core dumps without any messages. This has been isolated to a problem in XForms and only for Solaris. You can work around this bug by turning off tooltips (disable "Show Tooltips" in the "Help" menu on the main toolbar).
6 Fri Apr 4 1997 All DataSplash will not work with the latest versions of Postgres95 (6.0 and later) because the large object code doesn't work in the newer versions. You will need to download our binary version of Postgres95, or the older source code for Postgres95.

The older Postgres95 source code is available at
ftp://ftp.postgreSQL.org/pub/oldstuff/postgres95-1.09.tar.gz. This is a Postgres95 bug.
