Yo again, Guru community ...
I received only 1 (!) me too for the question I posted more than a month ago, so, there's no summary to post ! Here is my original question :

The Ethernet connection came back this morning, but the X Terminal was hung, so I rebooted it.

My local Unix guru (yves@bcomeau.hydro.qc.ca) said that it was almost impossible to get back those lost windows, because it involved something like getting back the X session or connection number, along with other parameters such as the window's positions, then starting an X server and a window manager with those parameters (and probably others!). Maybe I am off the track, but that is what I understood.
So I killed the jobs on the server.
Sigh !
Thanx anyway
