Well, I'm not positive that I don't have an hardware problem. The
laptop works fine under Win98, but the X server (under FreeBSD, of
course) starts corrupting graphics (typically scroll bars or window
contents) after an hour or two of use. I've seen this with more than
one window manager (twm and KDE), and so I suspect the server, but I
suppose it could be hardware.
[ I don't know if it makes a difference, but I've got 8MB of video RAM. ]
