I've posted another log at http://nauseum.org/x4-virge/ . No change this
time, it ran, but with the same problems (sluggish pointer, flickering
background, broken console on exit). Also, after some runs the pointer
would remain visible on the console.

I've added two logs, one for my LCD size (1024x768), and one for
800x600. I found that both ran allright (apart from the above problems),
but after exiting from 800x600,the console display was completely blank
except for the pointer. The keyboard still responded, so I was able to
reboot.

Regards,
Rob.
