Sounds like about where I am. Wierd thing is the colourmap was fine when using the (obviously very broken in other ways) 1172x864 configuration. As I said in my previous e-mail, it looks kind of like the sort of colour scheme you oftne get if you force something to display on a display with far fewer colours than it was designed to cope with. Looking at a stripped down session with twm the effect for things not in black and white is almost reverse video. > support out of XFree86's CVS tree, but it's slow going so far (their > changelog leaves alot to be desired in terms of helpfulness).

I suspect it's not going to be too different to what I've got. I could take a look and start trying to do a contrast & compare with the other configurations. I'd been going with the framebuffer stuff since it seems safer and half my use of X is as a mechanism for switching so I'm not particularly concerned about performance. > Oh, also, I've had a lockup once or twice while testing X, but it was > always after I had killed the Xserver a few times and was working on the > console again. So far, no concrete way of reproducing that behaviour... I've had one of those and a very hard lock where I lost the network too. Something tells me that it could be related to the power management but I can't think of anything concrete I'm basing that on. -- "You grabbed my hand and we fell into it, like a daydream - or a fever."
