I don't know how close a C110 is compared to a C100, but we had massive
filesystem corruptions on a C100 (and a C160) during the weekend in Oldenburg. 
It looked like the problems I had with my C200, which seem to be fixed
(I've compiled XFree and mozialla on that machine). I'll recheck on
my C100, when I get home again.

it should work. To use stifb you need to remove the check for Artist
only (search for HACK:).
