I've got a vendor suplied brain dead X client that runs on Sun bxes at
work. It's vrain dead because if the X server has more than 256 colors it
core dumps. Wnoderful vendor software eh whta?

In any case, what I want to do is run a 2nd X serer on my FreeBSD STABLE
machine. This server I want to run in 8 bt mode, so that I can disply this
broken client.

Can I do this? If so how?

Also I'm runing Gnome which is very color hungry, so short of creating a
seperate user to login as when using this X sever, and using a lighter
wieght environment for it (twm?), can anyone think of a way to prevent
Gnome from sucking up all the limited colorspace when I log  in to the X
serer? Perhaps seting the DISPLAy on the remote machine to sya
FreeBSDbox:1?
