I tried it with startx -- -depth 24, which fixed the 16 colours problem (thanks!). I had thought about that, but changing my XF86Config to *only* have 24bpp @ 1024x786 didn't seem to make a difference. I would have thought this would have meant it actually ran at 24bpp. ;) - Aidan -- aidan@velvet.net http://www.velvet.net/~aidan/ aim:aidans42 finger for pgp key fingerprint |Unix Programmer/Admin actively seeking work 01AA 1594 2DB0 09E3 B850 |CV at http://www.velvet.net/~aidan/cv.txt C2D0 9A2C 4CC9 3EC4 75E1 |Gis a job, go on, I can do that, go on, gis it.
