Options don't stick

Dear Andrew/ Arnaud/ Everyone else:
 
Is the DDD list still active or has discussion moved to another forum?
The archives look like just spam without any DDD discussion...
I've been working on experiments for the last year but now back to some
computational and comp-admin work, with a new system. However, we find
that when a user changes his DDD font size in the preferences dialog,
then quits with 'save options' selected, and restarts, it does not
persist. Likewise editing the .ddd/init file does not persist once DDD
is started then exited, it goes back to size 0 for some reason 
 
I have tried with and without the app-defaults/Ddd file , and as various
user accounts. I tried editing the .ddd/init file (without DDD running) 
 
 I have at least one user who has reason to prefer larger size font for
this application 
 
 
 
 
This does not happen on the ohter system.
 
I suspected some problem in the default installation of DDD (Suse-9.1
DDD 3.3.8 ) so I removed it and installed DDD-3.3.11 from Sourceforge.
Same behaviour. I have DDD from CVS on the other system , so I tried
buildign that on this one, but it fails. I'll send a separate message
about that if I haven't solved it soon but I hope that the font problem
is not dependent on having the CVS head version and that it is easily
fixed by some simple configuration. Unfortnately, something seems to be
wrong with the DDD list archive search engine and it returns wrong
titles so i have not been able to find a previous answer to this
problem.
 
DDD 3.3.11 from source
GCC gcc (GCC) 3.3.3 (from SuSE)
Openmotif  (from Suse ) 2.2.2-519.4 
 
Thanks
Robert
