Well, so much for that. Rebooted my system about 1/2hr ago, and as soon
as I load up scrotwm, I can see screen corruption (horizontal bar filled
with white noise), and then X locked up completely. Tried re-jigging my
xorg.conf (had previously been mucking around with vesa and fbdev), but
to no avail... every time I loaded X, the same thing occured.
Eventually, after removing my xorg.conf altogether, I concluded that
something was awry with the driver itself, and so I removed it, and
installed the one from the Lucid repos... which means I'll be due for a
crash anytime soon, but at least it works for more than a few minutes.

I'm kinda at a loss here. I don't understand how the karmic driver
worked so well for several days, and then bam, it decides to go crazy.
