- Yes, after installing the SPP, I was messing around with SVGA ON|OFF
- and got that same behaviour. I ended up deleting the svgadata.pmi file
- and everything went back to normal. Turns out I guess I didn't need it
- because I'm running the stock IBM 8514/a drivers. I couldn't get
- Joels to work..... :-(
