nope. This is a shell-only box. However, I have been running XFree for
quite some time on my home (SMP) system with an egcs-compiled kernel.
However I didn't have access to that particualr system at the time I wrote
the last e-mail, and I did have access to the system that I quote the
/proc/version from, and that system also happens to be an *incredibly*
stable box.

I don't suppose you've tried to start XFree, an svgalib app, or anything
else which uses iopl() then?
