I am running T Roell's new release of X386 (1.1a) on my machine (ESIX) with
a Tseng 4000.  No problems, except that I wish I could figure out how to
get the ESIX socket calls to work.  Anyway, thanks Thomas!!  

My friend is trying to run the X386 server on his Interactive machine with
a Paradise OEM card.  In Roell's announcement he says PVGA support is one of
the new features of this release.  My friend gets the same behavior as before,
that is, a series of images (4 or 5) running from the lower left to upper 
right on his screen.  So he gets several images of the same xterm, several
mouse cursors that all move together, etc.  Has anyone been able to make this
work with a PVGA card?  From what he described, I think he installed it 
correctly, although I haven't checked his machine personally to make sure.
Thanks for any help or info.
