Then Jerry inquired:

And Brian produced:

(1) Change your /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xdm/Xservers to this invocation:

:0 local /usr/X11R6/bin/X -bpp 16


(2)  And...here's the XF86Config.  Have fun.  This is for XFree 3.3, my
chip is a Trident 9385 (IF I'm reading the xdm-errors file right, anyway).
I originally got this from one of the pages listed on the 'Linux Laptop'
page.  Some guy has all sorts of great TP560 stuff there; if this doesn't
work for you it might be worth poking around.  But this file is
FreeBSD-compliant...if you've got my laptop, it should drop right in.

Cheers,

Brian
