John-Mark Gurney:
 |now I seem to have a problem with XFree86 giving return errors on the
 |DGA calls... the two that I get (first with fxtv, second with dtv) are:
 |hydrogen,ttyp3,~/bktr/fxtv-0.41,502$./fxtv
 |./fxtv
 |X Error of failed request:  153
 |  Major opcode of failed request:  142 (XFree86-DGA)
 |  Minor opcode of failed request:  0 (XF86DGAQueryVersion)
 |  Serial number of failed request:  12
 |  Current serial number in output stream:  12

Hmm.  Interesting.  If this is what we can expect from XFree servers when
the DGA extension isn't supported (even in releases where DGA is supported
by some servers), I can patch in an X error handler to trap this and just
turn off direct video for all video modes.  That'll get you going on
XImages.

I'll add it this evening or tomorrow, and mail you to see if that gets you
full-up or not.
