It's still pretty good.

How do you start fVDI? I tried both boot-starting (with and without NVDI)
and starting from the desktop (with NVDI ofcourse), but I got bus-errors
every time.

I also had problems in TOS, e.g. the round radiobuttons in TK-config was
rather ugly... I also had a peculiar with the desktop: If I moved a window a
bit to the right, it was blitted *very* slowly. It took around 10 seconds to
blit the entire window...

However, I'm waiting for my Eclipse and your latest release to arrive, so I
haven't bothered too much with fVDI lately.

0.94-something, I can't remember the date but I downloaded it around 20/7.
