I do.  ;o)  Just not the time. ;o/

If he's using the GinGin64 supplied binaries and kernel, he's 
using a complete 64bit kernel+userland including X.  I believe it 
is probably a DRM issue that needs a few pokes with a stick.

I'm going to try to reproduce it on ia64 also to see if it is 
likely a 64bit issue or just an architectural oddity.  Either is 
possible.  I haven't tried 4.3.0 on Alpha yet, but that might be 
a good idea too.

Take care guys,
