Ok. Now I'm curious. I'm running 7.0 myself and it seems fine. No problem
with the compilers. X is an upgrade so I remained pointed at the SVGA X
driver until I noiced it and now I'm using the real X-4 driver. Seems to
work fine. I happen to be running with KDE and that seems ok too. The only
problem I had was with pine where the broke the backspace key, but an
update fixed that.

BTW, when I went with the new X driver it worked right away. Now I'm
running at 1600x1200@2bpp@85Hz. No complaints. At lower bitplanes it
wanted to give me 1900 Horiz. :-)
