I just read your mail more carefully.  The last line was:

readv/3,[{"1\0,..............\371"...,1088},
{"", 0], 2) = 1088

(where ....... is a lot more numbers and \)

I may have gotten some spaces wrong.  I don't know if you can copy between 
X and CLI using 'screen'.

I paged up a few times and did not find any other readv lines.
Quite a lot of resource unavailables.

Does the above imply that I am NOT missing some files and maybe I just 
need a faster computer?  A few read, write and select lines before this, 
and before that some open's referring to locale files that were not there.
