Hi all,

I have a Toshiba Tecra M1 laptop with a Trident Cyberblade XP4m32 card.  The
trident driver is, basically, crappy.  So I'd prefer to use VESA.  I have for
some time successfully used VESA under Xsun.  But, I'd like to move to
Xorg to pick up all of the goodness therein :)

The problem I hit is that my screen turns dark red when I start up the Xorg
server-- the bits are still rendered, but the colormap is badly off.  In
the past I've had trouble google searching for likely candidates for this
problem.  Tonight however, I discovered
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2150 which exactly documents the
problem I'm having.

Can we somehow advocate to Xorg for a fix to this bug?  It would really help
as we move towards a day when Xorg is the default server.  Thanks,
