 Sorry I don't have any idea how to fix screen corruption.
 
 ashp> Also, after the installation was done, I noted that 'wrapper'
 ashp> had not been installed.  I run X by the old fashioned 'startx',
 ashp> and this will fail post installation.  This should be added to
 ashp> the list of installed packages, when X is selected in the
 ashp> installation.
 
 However, some users does *not* want to install wrapper since they
 doesn't use startx.  It would be better that
 
 	* If you want to install Xwrapper, do it yourself.  sysinstall
 	  does have a menu for installing packages.
 	* When installing XFree86 package, a pop-up message "if you
 	  want to start X with startx(1), please install wrapper
 	  program from package." is shown.
 
 How do you think about this?
