Well.. Sorry to report, but late yesterday afternoon I was composing a
mail message with pine and watching fxtv at the same time (small window),
and with Amancio's mods, and everything just froze, resulting in more
filesystem damage, so at least to me things seem better, but not a lot
more. It appears that if I am going to watch tv, I have to kill the
internet connection and all programs that could possibly write to disk and
then dedicate to watching tv.

Well at least till we find the problem (or I can upgrade to a dual Pentium
box).  

In the meantime, I have gone back to XFree 3.2, in an effort to see if
maybe the version 3.2A X server is causing the problems (it's beta after
all).
