Distributed Mechanism buttons don't work

[nomura]

Dear developers;

The viwers, celsius and global Ra buttons in the Tools->Distributed Mechanism tab in Neuron ver.5.9.39 don't work on my PC. But, those in Neuron ver.5.8.88 works well. Are there any ideas for fixing my problem?

Thanks.

I'm using version 5.9 2006-5-20 18:55:15 Main (39) under WinXP Pro and all these
buttons work fine. What OS are you using, and exactly what is the first line of the
"welcome" msg that NEURON prints in its xterm on startup?

Thank you for your reply.

The welcome message is
NEURON -- Version 5.9 2006-5-20 18:55:15 Main (39).

I tested that version of the Neuron on Windows XP Pro Japanese edition and Debian sid environment. All the buttons work fine on linux, but some buttons returned errors on Windows XP Pro Japanese edition.

File->load sessrion returns

File->load hoc returns

{load("*.hoc", 0)}

File->load dll returns

File->save session returns

File->working dir returns

These buttons returned errors, but it seems that they work, for example, I load my hoc files.

Tools->Point Process viewers cannot get focus by clicking that button, but
I can focus it by clicking the Tools->Point Processes button and slipping the cursor onto the viewers button while pushing the left mouse button.
The problems I posted previously were solved by the same way. All my troubles listed above did not happen on the Neuron ver. 5.8.88 under Windows XP.

oc: Device or resource busy

is probably benign and I believe something has set the errno unexpectedly but without failing. The only possible remedy to avoid the message is for me to ignore that particular errno but that may be a mistake on my part if the device or resource is permanently busy.

cannot get focus...did not happen on the Neuron ver. 5.8.88 under Windows XP.

I see the problem and will try to fix it.
