XLR8 reply seems somewhat terse since Sonnet officially supports X. 
But just how good is Sonnet's X support?? How does Sonnet's 
X-enabling differ from XPostFacto? Are the limitations basically the 
same?

Anyway, this is a just a minor annoyance because 9.1 is still my main 
system and I only occasionally boot into X to try some X-only 
application or otherwise keep myself up-to-date with X. I could 
install X on some SCSI disk but I'd rather use some partition on my 
75G Deskstar for this.
