I get all kinds of greens, but it should be blue IIRC. Indeed it's blue on my current as of last week. > Some info about my setup: Xfree 3.3.6 on CURRENT.

What color depth are you running at? I wouldn't expect that anything 16-bit or higher wouldn't work well, at least. -CURRENT usually works great for gaming for me; I'm going through, e.g., Chrono Trigger my second time now :) I'd guess something may be taking up a HUGE amount of the palette, unless you are running in 24-bit mode. If it's not that, perhaps it's the video card itself. This is a rather strange problem to have. > -- > Jeroen Ruigrok vd Werven/Asmodai asmodai@[wxs.nl|bart.nl|freebsd.org] > Documentation nutter/C-rated Coder BSD: Technical excellence at its best > The BSD Programmer's Documentation Project > Abandon hope, all ye who enter here... -- Brian Fundakowski Feldman \ FreeBSD: The Power to Serve! / green@FreeBSD.org `------------------------------' To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
