Sounds like what I get with XFree86 3.2, 3.2A, 3.3 on my FreeBSD (2.1.5 and 2.2.1) system with the ATI Mach64 driver...that plus some kernel panic complaining about a "recursive_lock" on my 2nd try at running the server. It does however work if I give it '-bpp 16' instead of the default -bpp 8...probably unrelated to what you're seeing, but I couldn't resist the opening to mention it again :-( Scott Blachowicz Ph: 206/283-8802x240 Mathsoft (Data Analysis Products Div) 1700 Westlake Ave N #500 scott@statsci.com Seattle, WA USA 98109 Scott.Blachowicz@seaslug.org
