I've just updated jaunty_tormod. Great, I see the screen ! I see the toolbar on top the 2nd half of the screen is block with xdhmc marked but the screen seems freezed and I've no mouse cursor. But it's a great progress to have a xwindow ! I've not the time today to send a log but I'll send to morrow afternoon... Tanks Daniel
