My kernels made from March 12 on seem to give blank screens, garbage or hang the system with starting X. My kernel made March 11 (last sup then would have been about 11:30PM PST) seems to work okay in X (although it crashes when I run Linux Elf files :). Also I am running Xinside v1.2 and a Diamond Stealth Pro (ISA). I am NOT running on a laptop. -David Langford langfod@dihelix.com >A resent change has caused my display to not work properly under X >graphics mode.
