Hello Mark -
2 colors (black and white) is indeed what I get when I run 4.1.0.
But if I swap that server out for the CVS one (which I need in order
to have Xinerama working on the i128 driver) I get black, white, and
exactly 242 colors in a standard-looking colormap pattern.
I wonder if the fact that I've compiled my X-Server without modules
is causing some extension to initialize itself? I tried again
without BuildCup, but same problem. Is there a call, such as
AllocColor(), to which I could add some debugging to track this
down?
Thanks,
- Sidik
