Dimmer seemed to work fine the first time I tried it.  But, after
I changed from 2 to 256 colors it stopped working.  It would show 
on the Control Panel, but without the sliding scale and the strings 
attached to the buttons. I tried again with either 2 or 256 colors.  
Now it does not even show up in the Control Panel. It would still 
ShowInit upon startup; sometimes with the X'ed icon, sometimes the 
regular icon.  When it shows the regular icon, it does work, i.e. 
it would dim the screen to the level for which I had set it when it 
did show up on the Control Panel the first time.  Now it only shows 
the X'ed icon, and does not work at all.  Since I am new to the Mac, 
I do not really know what is going on.  Hardware configuration: 
MacII, Apple HD40SC, AppleColor Monitor, Ext. Apple Video Card.  
Software: System 4.1,Finder 5.5, the only other Init in the system 
folder is WatchInit5.0 (makes watch hands spin).
