====================================

Could this behavior be caused by a Savage Card?
I have the same problems, so I startx after booting to level 3
hmmmm interesting.... I have a Diamond Savage 4 - Xtreme w/32mb 


Another problems I am experiencing "w/mdk8.0beta1" is related to the 
CDs, can't mount them!  One is a:
-----------------------

and this message keeps repeating itself in DMEG:

Other than that, everything else works like a champ...!  ;-)

BTW... forgot to mention the problem related to fwctl...
