    Hello,
    
    I started magic today from a new installation and received the following error
    message:
    
    -------------
    clupe 62: magic -Tscn6m csp0916.mag 
    
    Magic 7.1 - Compiled on Tue Oct  8 11:46:17 EDT 2002.
    CAD_HOME sets "~cad" to "/app/magic".
    flock_list directory created.
    Error opening flock_list/link.

    What could be the problem.... 
    Its the first time I see a flocklist directory created message... and the
    "Reducer for lambda message also. Same thing for the Unable to allocate 7 planes
    in default colormap...
    
    I have used these files at my home computer and these worked correctly. These
    error messages appeared when I tried to used these filed on a Sun machine at my
    university. We have the same magic version (7.1).
    
    Does someone know what is the problem?
    
    This is installed on our university unix Sun machines (SunOS Release 5.8
    Generic_108528-16 and CDE 1.4.8, X11 Version 6.4.1)
    
    Your kind help would be appreciated.
