Ok, so it looks like I failed to relink the server correctly -- but the
difference in server sizes is still pretty dramatic, given that, well,
they look pretty much the same. Again, the -showconfig on the server
listed the same video devices. Could someone remail explicit directions
on how to relink the server? I got some somewhat-vague directions
before --- maybe a diff on the makefile, if possible?
Thanks...
