Thanks, and I know how annoying that dfps guy can be <grin>.

Yah; I've been swamped with some other stuff lately. I was hoping to
try to get my arms around the KMS driver and kibitz at some point in the
hopefully-not-too-distant-future. (I felt, for a brief period, that I
understood the whole of the qxl driver, and your kms patches pushed me
rather unceremoniously out of that fantasy world).
Cheers,
