Interesting...  Xconfigurator allowed me to select C&T CT65550 & generic 
640x480 LCD.  That got a nice XF86Config file set up.  A startx at the 
command prompt got me into KDE fine.

Changed from runlevel 3 to 5 in inittab while in KDE.  Rebooted, ran startx 
from command line, and got the GUI to choose which shell to boot.  Choose 
icewm, but this got weird.  The system booted into KDE, got my KDE startup 
music, and just as things were settling in, the bottom of the screen went to 
the black command prompt, a few commands scrolled by, and the system froze 
with a blinking _ command prompt at the left edge of the screen.

Hmmm... seems like something besides the graphics chip and monitor settings 
is misconfigured.

Matt
