If I set my color to 32 bit, Netscape looks fine, but KDE displays all images ( say from Kviewer ) in B&W. If I set it for 24bit, Netscape looks like a mutated hack, but I have color in KDE. I wrote KDE they said it was my video drivers. I'm running a CL Voodoo Banshee using the drivers off CL's site. I have also used the Darryl Straus drivers with the same result. Enlight/Gnome works fine in 24 bit. Seems like KDE has a problem to me.. Alan
