Matthew, Thanks for your response.
I've already tried it. I'm starting it from init, and it works exactly the same, except that now I'm getting yellow colors :-)..... Also, I've cross compiled kdrive for an ARM processor, and I get the same problem. Then I compiled the complete X for my x86 with framebuffer support, and it works ok (nice 256 colors...). But.... but... when I crossed compiled the complete X for ARM..... I didn't get the XFree86 server!!!!! I get all the other stuff, but XFree86 was missing!!!!! This is getting me really crazy.... so if there's any hint over there before I get nuts, I would really appreciate it.... Txs.
