ALSO! heheh I won`t quit till I make sure answers ring loud =)
if XWin seems to hang, hit CTRL-ALT-BACKSPACE at the same time (A combo of
keys much more worthy than winblowz'z ctrl-alt-del =) it will auto exit you
back to a console so as not to make you hit reset =) another thing is
CTRL-ALT-+ or - on the keypad which will switch all available resolutions in
xwindows. I hope this helps and I am also going to give this info to
XFREE86.org and hope they will post this info soon!
