Hi all,

I've got another minor(ish) issue to report. I've had a number of instances now where I've left VMD open (but not working on anything), and come back to find it trapped in some infinite loop state (all VMD windows frozen, but ~100% CPU usage). The only way to break it is to kill the session. It's a bit tricky to pin down exactly what triggers it, but as far as I recall every time this has happened I've had at least one protein structure and at least one volumetric map loaded.

A few other details:

Version: 1.9 LINUXAMD64, built from source to use Axel Kohlmeyer's VRPN version for the Novint Falcon
OS: CentOS 6.4
CUDA boards: Tesla C2050, Quadro 4000

It's not a memory issue: at present, with a frozen instance of VMD running, I'm still registering 11GB free RAM.

Cheers,

Tristan
