Sometimes this method of restarting the graphics causes problems
because the startgfx gets HUP'd by the killed X windows session as
the windowsystem shuts down. There are various better ways of doing
this, the one that typically works for me is:

# nohup /usr/gfx/stopgfx;/usr/gfx/startgfx

As for patches, if you have an Onyx IR I believe the latest is
2327; for Onyx2 IR, it's 2789.
