There will be 5 unrecognized channels every event for the data that is not assigned to crystals but is in the same bank.  If there are more than this, you should check the log to make sure the run number is being used correctly.  Monte Carlo data all has run number zero so it is not good for testing this.  I'm pretty sure the cosmic runs should work fine here, or at least last I checked it this was working fine.

I would need to know the steering file you are running and what you are doing during the session to cause the machine to lock up.  Is this something that happens only with the interaction of the event display and the plotting?  Or does it happen with simpler noninteractive usage?
