1) Docs, docs, docs. Right now, MOL is barely usable for me, but perhaps
that is a configuration issue. But being that the docs are far less than
adequate, I have no means of knowing. What's thew point of adding new
features when it isn't even possible to know how to properly operate the
existing ones?

Since I am not sure what these actually fall under, or if they are just
configuration issues:

2) Having a valid keyboard layout. It don't know what layout MOL is
using--it is not the same as X, and certain keys, essential keys for stuff I
do, are missing.

3) I can have video in X, but not in MOL. Just get a blank screen (I think
it may work when launching MOL under X, but then the command key doesn't
work so that's fairly useless). It works if I pass "novideo" to the kernel,
but otherwise just blackness. Molvconfig is of no assistance. It appears to
lock up. I am using the r128 driver (rage128 pro/AGP, sawtooth, Apple studio
display)

4) Solving the issue with OS 9.2.2 (pauses for a particularly long time on
boot).
