Dear readers:
Thanks for the info!
Martin Alonso Soto Jacome's <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> answer got to
me first:

``Oh'', he said in a quiet voice. (I've just started using X under
Linux, and hadn't grasped the differences between startx and xdm.)
At the time I was tweaking the ModeLines to get the display size
best suited to the screen, and thus was starting and killing X
constantly. Next time, I'll just use startx, and save myself some
hassle.
Thanks in arrears, too.
Sincerely,
Max Hyre
