making that change, installing the modified fluxbox and xorg 1.3
and we are there, working like a charm!

  nexus:~> head /var/log/Xorg.0.log
  X Window System Version 1.3.0
  Release Date: 19 April 2007
  X Protocol Version 11, Revision 0, Release 1.3

  nexus:~> grep EE  /var/log/Xorg.0.log
        (WW) warning, (EE) error, (NI) not implemented, (??) unknown.
  (II) Loading extension MIT-SCREEN-SAVER

So I guess that closes this one -- thanks very much
for all of your help.

Cheers

Jim
