Hi,

This is very strange because I am sitting here with a Centris 650 running
X in monochrome right now.  I did not do anything special to get it to
work.  I installed -current snapshot from 2/14/97 and it just worked.
Sometime in May, I upgraded to a more recent snapshot to take advantage of
the Sonic ethernet driver.  But X has always worked for me "out of the
box."  If I do a uname, it tells me I am running NetBSD 1.2E.
