Ah, graphics.  Something I forgot.  The current NetBSD X server doesn't
work.  You'll need at least XFree86 4.0.1e[*] or later.  NetBSD is in
the process of moving to XF 4.0.2, but I don't believe there are any
binary shapshots available yet.  Someone else may be better able to
comment on snapshot availability.

I played briefly with a couple of the full desktop thingys (gnome and
something else I can't remember) but I prefer a simple ctwm setup.
What I did try didn't have any problems.

Simon.

[*] 4.0.1 definitely _didn't_ work, and the next version I tried was
around 4.0.1e.  Probably best to go straigh to 4.0.2.
