I'm not sure whether my reply actually applies to your problem - but how did you start the X Server? Did you try e.g. startx -- -bpp 16 for 64K colors? If you use xdm the corresponding line in /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xdm/Xservers would be: :0 local /usr/X11R6/bin/X -bpp 16 Regards Konrad Heuer Personal Bookmarks: Gesellschaft f=FCr wissenschaftliche Datenverarbeitung mbH G=D6ttingen http://www.freebsd.org Am Fa=DFberg, D-37077 G=D6ttingen http://www.daemonnews.o= rg Deutschland (Germany) kheuer@gwdu60.gwdg.de To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
