And Brian produced:
(1) Change your /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xdm/Xservers to this invocation:
:0 local /usr/X11R6/bin/X -bpp 16
(2) And...here's the XF86Config. Have fun. This is for XFree 3.3, my
chip is a Trident 9385 (IF I'm reading the xdm-errors file right, anyway).
I originally got this from one of the pages listed on the 'Linux Laptop'
page. Some guy has all sorts of great TP560 stuff there; if this doesn't
work for you it might be worth poking around. But this file is
FreeBSD-compliant...if you've got my laptop, it should drop right in.
Cheers,
Brian
