[Wien] e-test: subscript out of range

[Ingo Loa]

Dear Stefaan, dear Ad,

I had the same problem for quite a while on Suse 7.x and Athlon. In our 
case, the problem seem to have originated from problems with NFS mounted 
file systems (only showing up in WIEN). To overcome it, I added a "sleep 1" 
at the beginning of the script "testconv" to get some extra time for 
synchronizing the file systems. Hardly any problems since then.

Our local computer wizards told me recently that Suse 7 has become widely 
known to have some NFS troubles with Athlons. There should be fixes 
available. Upgrading to Suse 8 may also be an option.

Regards,
Ingo
