    I finally got a kernel after 2.4.0-test3 to compile (it also booted just
    fine). So I started X to make sure it worked too. It seemed to work
    fine. So I quit X. I was left staring at a blank screen, not even a
    blinking cursor. So before panicing, I blindly typed "reset" and bingo
    everything came back just fine.

    I think this is probally caused by the 3DFX DRM driver. I don't need it
    (and I think I've heard that it doesn't even work right now), so I can
    compile it out of my kernel. But just to let who ever know what I have
    seen.

    Oh, BTW, I'm running XFree 4.01 if that has any berring.

    Thanks,
    Chris
