I've got it running (d2x), with the new SDL lib. I'm not sure, but it still 
seems like the sound is lagging a bit. And I'm  having problems displaying 
the movies.

Another thing that's quite anoying is that I can't see the guide-bot 
interface when I press shift-F4. It responds to commands, I just can't see 
what I'm doing. Anyone else suffering from this?
