I had the same problem on my DualPentium 166 with 64Mb RAM and 128 Swap..... Also I have a 4 Mb Diamond 3000 (VirgeVX Chipset) so I have used X server running 24bpp mode... I had problems I could describe here if I may: Under linux emulation I couldnt run Problem Solution Staroffice 3.1 Change X server to 16bpp mode Desc: It simply hangs (seems like out of swap memory!!! but It doesn't) PixMap Change X server to 16bpp mode Desc: When you try to start it as root it hangs! When it starts from user shell it writes Couldn't calloc. Any other problems? Hope it helps >I decided to edit a little xpm today with pixmap.
