20000223: gf driver

Chris,

I would suggest checking to make sure you didn't reboot into
a 24bit X configuration using the xdpyinfo command after making
sure that no message queues are hanging around. You might also check that your
LD_LIBRARY_PATH is set- some environmental variables may have been changed.
