- The same problems exists in at least one of the 1024*768*256 drivers
- (I used the 8514/A version with the larger fonts/icons). The new fonts
- are harder to read in 1024*768 mode. I have not tried the 16 color
- drivers.

- Also, after changing my lockup password, the lockup feature does not
- work correctly and requires a reboot after lockup. This is a *major*
- inconvenience.
