The colormap seems to get screwed up. Normally, I have an initial xterm window come up and it has a "wheat" background, but running against the 3.2 XF86_Mach64, I get a pink background (if I remember correctly). Also, I normally use ctwm (3.4pl2) which has a splash screen that cycles itself brighter & dimmer and it isn't just brighter & dimmer against the new server. Do these symptoms sound familiar to anyone? Or have ideas as to better means to describe/document the symptoms? Or better places to direct this message? Thanx, Scott Blachowicz Scott.Blachowicz@seaslug.org scott@statsci.com
