NO!  I would find bugs and things I had always wanted to add and end

If I start a movie with -vo vesa the screen goes black.  Switching to
another console or to the console and back to X fixes this.  But the
image that gets displayed is compressed vertically by about half and
two pictures are shown side by side with a bit of space in between.

Matrox G550 connected through DVI to a TFT monitor.
