Hi:

XDirectFB works flawlessly when started from an xterm. This is my first
time actually using it, and I'm /really/ impressed. The server feels an
order of magnitude faster than XFree86. :)

The keyboard/mouse checkins seem to have fixed a few things - XDirectFB
now starts properly from the console, but occasionally locks at shutdown
or during heavy server traffic (minimize/maximize in fwvm2).

Thanks again,

- Dave
