That's what I meant by "I can only set it to 8" - if I use 16, 24 or 32 in XF86Config, startx doesn't start X. I'm guessing that the huge virtual screensize is automatically chosen to "use" all of the video-ram, but I'd rather use it for colourdepth :-) > My system: PowerBook Pismo, kernel 2.2.15pre19, XFree 3.3.5, > XF86_FBDev. Mine: iBook, 2.2.17pre9-ben1, XFree 3.3.6 & FBDev. I think I'll give XFree 4 a whirl... Best wishes, -- "You must be a sad bastard to like it" Adam Sjøgren [EMAIL PROTECTED]
