>>I just want to confirm the message from Mary Kay. We had a similar
>>experience: our G3 came with OS8.1, which could not be taken down to 8.0,
>>and SA3.2 was installed on these with OS8.1. The system crashes when trying
>>to autoanalyze, either at the start or after finishing tracking but usually
>>before extraction. I also added 64M RAM to the existing 32M, and that has
>>not helped. In both cases we had virtual memory on. Tomorrow we will run
>>them with virtual memory off.

>I'm not sure how to post directly to the ABRF site so I'm sending you email
>directly. I wanted to let you know I've fixed the bug that was causing the
>Mac to crash exactly 6 hours after the tracker first ran, if VM was on.
>Odd.

>Anyway, you can download the new tracker from the abi website. Could you
>please let your colleagues know that the patch is up there.
