I'd like to do this.
Where abouts would it go in -
I guess that this would be another directory alongside
programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/xf24_32bp
and
programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/xf8_32bpp ?
Where should I look to generate the list of functions which would need to
be implemented ?
Are we just going for 8bit pseudocolor on 24 bit directcolor,
or is it worth trying 5bit pseudo on 15/16 bit directcolour too ?
Can anyone point me at instructions for testing an X server,
once I thing I have it working ? I know about
ftp://devel.xfree86.org/xtest.bin.tgz
but never managed to run individual tests or understand the failure
reports.
