I got my strange device i described below back in february working in 8
bit color mode with visual FB_VISUAL_PSEUDOCOLOR. I hacked up shpacked.c
in xc/programs/Xserver/miext/shadow so the shadow frame buffer follows the
rules.
now I have changed my frame buffer kernel module over to 24-bit
color.
hey, i got it working. but i need to fine tune the delays a bit.
is there an XFree86 facility for doing a busy wait for 1 microsecond?
I put in a loop myself, but i was afraid the optimizer was dropping it.
the display is a little flaky, like it may be writing too fast. I'm trying
a longer loop

Ok, thanks everybody for the suggestions!!
I already had XFree86 4.2.0 downloaded, configured (defaults except for
install locations) and compiled, just not installed.
So I started looking in the source code.
It looks like what I would want to do is change the call to
shadowAdd in xc/programs/X

It's no longer state of the art as it uses the old shadowfb module,
which updates the real framebu

You can optionally provide a special update function for the shadow
framebuffer

I'm trying to get a strange little device working, and i've run into a problem.
It's an LCD microdisplay, about 2 inches tall and 3 inches wide. it has
a resolution of 800x600 and 8-bit color. it's meant to be held up to your
eye for viewing. the optics are quite nice, you don't have to squint or
