Oh, duh. Of course. Sorry - serious brain fade on my part. -70 is the 2.4
syntax.

Good news.

BTW, I'd be interested in hearing if you see any unusual behaviour. Fox
example, when switching from X to the console I see a thin white line about 1
pixel high across the bottom of the screen. Typically the line has substantial
breaks in a couple of places.

Also when shutting down from gdm with the full screen display, my console
background goes a bluey sort of shade.

Something looks like it isn't quite right. I haven't located what, yet; not
that I've looked very hard.
