Can't log in as anonymous user there ... I'll pull the code from cvsweb if
needs be.

Thanks, I'll try that.

Well, we've had the code let rot for too long I guess. But X on my Falcon
wasn't fun before the CT60 came along (and the rot hat set in by that
time)...
I'll try to fix the kernel framebuffer first. Maybe it crashes in part due
to the switch to 16bit not working?
