Hi Kashani,
   I tried logging out and back in earlier. I've also tried it across
my network. No difference.

   strace gave me a bunch of this type of info:

close(3)

and then a bunch more like that.

   Maybe someone else will have some ideas when they get a chance to
look at all of this.

   I will call thinkorswim tomorrow and see what sort of support I can
get. Trading with a company that actually supports Linux would be the
best thing ever for me. Since they are looking for new customers this
is the best time for me to put some pressure on them.

   Thanks for your help.

Cheers,
Mark
