Yes, even here at this machine I see how tables are getting built up (P4 
1700), although it's usable. The last time I've tried it at home (P1 233 
and an old ATI graphics card) I even had lots of graphics problems which 
eventually led to a crash.

As I describe in another mail, I've tried to switch one instance to slave 
mode. It doesn't stay there, but returns to master mode immediately. I 
suppose it shouldn't? With any kind of notification gnubg exits with signal 03.
