Yeah, it's still possible to, for instance, enable PseudoColor visuals on nVidia Quadro hardware. They even still support using PseudoColor visuals with transparent overlays. But the set of apps that actually take advantage of those capabilities is a vanishing breed. PseudoColor visuals are no longer supported in OpenGL, as of version 3.1 (but nVidia, at least, still supports them in its drivers when using the compatibility profile.) Brian, I'm actually surprised that you are able to use TigerVNC with -depth 8 at all. When I've tried it on RHEL 5, Gnome basically eats its face. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ CenturyLink Cloud: The Leader in Enterprise Cloud Services.
