No, directcolor is different. This is a mode that combines a pseudocolor
CLUT256 visual (but only 255 colors, because of the color key) with a truecolor
RGB888 visual.

E.g. the Matrox Millennium can do this, and IIRC at least Accelerated X
supports it.

when I'm talking to journalists I just say "programmer" or something like that.
