Thanks, Robert.
For w0=w1=10 I got the plot identical to yours.
However, with Mathematica 8 it is possible to find the solutions for
*arbitrary *frequencies
(which is justified physically), while Mathematica 7 fails in many cases (according to your observation- practically everywhere, except for the integers).
Hence, this is indeed a bug of 7. which is fixed in 8.
It would be great to hear from Wolfram developers involved in this
improvement. Was it documented somewhere?
Best
Michael
