I seem to have isolated a conflict between OSA Menu 1.2.2 ( possibly 1.0
onward ) and the Open Transport extension. I'm running OT 2.6.1 in OS 9.0.4
on a bronze PB G3 series. I can run OS 9.0.4 base extensions set excepting
Open Transport and Open Transport ASLM Modules along with OSA Menu. If I
turn on Open Transport all clicks in the menu bar result in a 30-40 second
pause followed by the menu opening normally. Clicks directed toward folders
or desktop items perform normally.
Since I've only just moved onto the PB and this seems to be a very
common configuration, I wonder if I've missed something. Can anyone else
reproduce this?
