Hi

I have the Asus GF4 Ti4400 as well - upgraded to XFree 4.2.1 the other day, no 
lockups as yet (although I am having that problem with itlaic text going 
diagonally upwards...)

Only single VGA monitor though - maybe thats where your problem is?

UT2003 I'm sure is a little slower than with 4.2.0 but that could just be 
me...

Regards

Shane
