I just tested Xvesa in BL3 while online, and twice had a serious problem 
with it.  I changed from the Xvesa terminal to a console mode terminal 
(don't recall the exact numbers) and when I tried to switch back to X I 
was not able to access either terminal (no blinking cursor), the CLI 
terminal continued to display, and I could not even reboot.
This is a dual monitor system (VGA and MDA).

I am back using the old Xvesa for BL3 and just managed to reproduce the 
problem while offline.  I see vc1 and cannot use it or change to vc4 (the 
X terminal).  I will try this eventually on a 1-monitor system to see if I 
need to simply avoid Xvesa in BL3.

Abiword starts to load with the newest icewm for Bl3 but when I hit Enter 
a couple of times to acknowledge the error messages it goes away.
