See if you have a /dev/bwtwo0.  If so, get rid of it.

On the color Sun-3/60s here, the presence of this node trashes the
server (how's that for a specific description).  The only frame buffer
devices we keep around are /dev/fb (of course) and /dev/cgfour0 (only
on the appropriate color Suns).

To start with the color frame buffer, you can use 

	xinit -- -dev /dev/cgfour0

	...tad
