Ah, right.  I disabled the grf pseudo-device (in fact, everything  
related to the previous graphics-management) in the kernel because I  
haven't got macfb and genfb to play well together yet.

Anyway, knowing that it relies o grf, I'll be able to test this  
myself here.  I remember I once got the X server to work alongside  
blackbox!

Kind regards,
