- Works fine. Only problem I had was that when I slid from the color screen to
- the mono screen, I was looking at the console -- no X windows. Slid back to
- the color screen and everything was fine. My solution has been to start the
- server with the -zaphod switch and ignore the problem. If anyone else ran
- into this problem and actually fixed it, I'd love to hear about it.
