: Wow! Seriously bug! Not good news...

: Could it be a version number thing or something?
The message is misleading. It's not the screen driver that's wrong - it's
the VDI. Artline needs the VDI from GEM 3.1, and I think you're using the
one from GEM 3.0. The version numbers are confusing, but the version in your
beta contains the strings
