Is the cursor stuck before you run the client? Do you run the client
directly from the server? (berlin -e fresco-demo) 

Are you running it from within X? If so, the title bar should say what
'console' of Berlin you're using: SDL or GGI, and whether using GL or
not.

Some people have reported problems where they can run the server ok, but
the server gets 'stuck' on running a client.

Are you using the M2 source? I'm not sure if you might get more success
using CVS, as I think some changes have gone in to reduce those problems
(the kit-dependency solution by Stefan went in post-M2, right?)

If you think you can handle it, try using the logging and tracing
options, the latter requiring building with tracing enabled
(--enable-tracer during configure). Use -l and -t to turn this on when
running berlin; examine -h/--help if you want to see a few more options
:)
