Hi Mark, ok, using restest I get the following with ica, when viewing a powerpoint presentation, with a heap of bitmap pictures.

Re: [Thinstation-developer] Re: [XFree86] Out of Memory
You've removed all the other Load lines from your Module section and just left the vnc.so there. The 'Load vnc' line should be added to your EXISTING!! Module Section not completely replaced. That's your problem. And as for the crashing, you've not read the release notes properly. The .101 release requires you to put back the original video driver from XFree86 4.3.0. Alan.
