I'd like to do this. Where abouts would it go in - I guess that this would be another directory alongside programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/xf24_32bp and programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/xf8_32bpp ? Where should I look to generate the list of functions which would need to be implemented ? Are we just going for 8bit pseudocolor on 24 bit directcolor, or is it worth trying 5bit pseudo on 15/16 bit directcolour too ? Can anyone point me at instructions for testing an X server, once I thing I have it working ? I know about ftp://devel.xfree86.org/xtest.bin.tgz but never managed to run individual tests or understand the failure reports. -- Dr. Andrew C.
