WARNING - THIS SOFTWARE COULD HANG YOUR MACHINE.
          READ THE SuperProbe.1 MANUAL PAGE BEFORE
          RUNNING THIS PROGRAM.

          INTERRUPT WITHIN FIVE SECONDS TO ABORT!

SuperProbe: CONSOLE_X_MODE_ON failed
SuperProbe: Cannot open video

>How-To-Repeat:
	/usr/X11R6/bin/SuperProbe
>Fix:
	At a guess the NetBSD X customisation was not correctly applied
        when SuperProbe was compiled. The version of Superprobe in the
        later snapshots works fine.
