Hi,

Well, I finally got X running.  I am totally wowed!  ("wow" is past
tense).  Very, very cool!    

I'm using xterm and what a difference I see in the speed of how fast the
screen gets updated.  Running under X, I expected to see things a little
slower as far as screen updates go.  It's actually a lot faster than
running under the console.  Screen updates on the console seem to be a
little slow.  For example, if you suspend pine and foreground it again,
the screen takes about 2 seconds to get the screen fully updated.  When I
use it under xterm, there's no noticable wait time.  Sorry to keep nagging
you guys about the console stuff, but it is a problem.  

Thanks again,

Jon
