 Thanks very much, Uli.  If I back out 764, I can launch X which is a
 great start.  If I VT switch to a console and then back to X, my
 machine freezes hard.  This is all probably 64-bit related.  When I
 had a 32-bit install on my machine, it worked pretty much normally.

 If you or any other developers would like my help testing patches, I'm
 glad to help.  I subscribe to the openchrome-users list so I'll see
 any patches that pertain to the Samsung NC20/VX800 that are posted
 there.
