Subject: xserver-xfree86: FBDev Green Screen and Invalid Color Depth
X-Mailer: reportbug 2.2
Date: Tue, 08 Oct 2002 11:41:48 -0400
Message-Id: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Delivered-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Package: xserver-xfree86
Version: 4.2.1-1
Severity: important
Tags: sid
After upgrading to 4.2.1 and typing startx, it would fail and give me an
error that the screen color depth is incorrect (24) after setting to 16
it works, however everything becomes a green tint. This is able to be
fixed by removing the fbdev setings (and recompiling the kernel to not
use fbdev).
