        I use Michel's binaries with a relatively recent benh kernel
        (though not the most recent one) and it works quite well on my
        iBook. It is both faster than X 4.1.0.1 and seems to support
        turning off the LCD's backlight, which apparently X 4.1.0.1
        doesn't.

        The only problem that I have with Michel's X binaries is that
        my iBook seems to crash when going out of sleep (after the
        screen is redrawn -- only moving the mouse/trackpad works, the
        keyboard and mouse clicks are completely ignored) while this
        seems to work fine with Debian's X.


        []s, Roger...
