The original idea was that size and depth would have to be switched
simultaneously to fit video card memory constraints.

I will note that even almost all Xt/Motif apps will deal with non-pseudocolor
default visuals, since 8 bit frame buffers have mercifully been rare for
a long while now: our going in strategy had always been to make pseudocolor
not the default visual, so that few apps would be using pseudo-colo

I've let this discussion go on a few days.
So far, Andrew is the only one to actually say he's at all interested
in seeing completion of RandR's depth switching.
Given that modern toolkits either have, or could have the fundamental
capability that is wanted, I suspect the work is better put e

Hi,
After a suspend of my Inspiron 8200 laptop, or a visit to the bios, X11
loses one keystroke,
and then the mouse buttons do not really work right. Moving the mouse
still works.
It seems like the timing is all wrong (even if click really slowly, I
get double and triple clicks).
The keyboard

Will XFree 5 (or better, XFree 4.something:) support DRI on Xinerama ?
I know there are projects (outside the XFree "core team") to make OpenGL
