I've never tried during boot, but moving the mouse _always_ causes
the X server to core dump if the mouse is moved while the X server
is starting up (which means xdm in dangerous withoug a way to remote
log in and kill and restart xdm if X dies).

I don't know if this info is at all useful because I am using MRG
because it has been suggested to me (by Paul G.) that HWDIRECT and
SLOTMAN don't like each other right now (well, a few weeks ago).
Since I haven't really had other problems, my solutions has just
been "dont' do that."

This is on a IIci.
