Hi!

Thanks to Martin Pedter for a quick and straightforward answer:

        PK3 breaks bigpage.
        Turn it off :)

That is PK3 for V5.1B. I have now turned of bigpage (vm_bigpg_enabled 0) and
keep my fingers crossed.

Maybe HP could post a notice about this on the Technical Updates for Patch
Kits website?

Best,
Hans
