On the 3130, it happens when I accidentally kill the window manager while there are windows, other than the console, present. Some times I can correct the problem by manualling killing each window, leaving the console, and then restarting mex. However, this doesn't work all the time. Sometimes I have to reboot to clear things up. I hope this is of some help. P.S. I tried sending this directly to you but the message was returned.
