I'm running 6.5.2.....

I didn't try to run ntl after I saw this problem. I do that when it
happens again. Right now it is fixed, after rebooting the machine that
was running gempak. I don't think it is a problem with the server side of
X since we see this problem on different Xserver platforms. (gempak runs
on the IRIX machine, but the image window opens on different
machines/Xservers.
A related problem is that when a new window is opened and a satellite
image is requested and clear=no, I get:
[GEMPLT -64] NCBALOC - Color bank not allocated.
However, the window does open and the raster data is plotted. If
clear=yes, no problem. I was using sfmap to do this. Bug/feature?
