Yep.  Froze solid...Ctrl-Alt-Bksp does work, usually.  On macppc, that
is.  But it didn't work during my afterstep install.

BTW right now I'm installing mozilla (thanks for porting this to macppc
netbsd :) and it has been 'make'ing for about an hour.  Probably thirty
dependencies had to ber installed, and it's working very well.  It just
seems like a lot of the graphics and x stuff won't make.  Like sane...it
gets to 'validating dependencies' and then spews out "error 1" ad
infinitum...

I hope the extra info helps.
Thanks again,
Jeff
