I've _finally_ gotten X to work on my Thinkpad 760EL, however I've been
having problems with 16bpp mode.  As it only has 1mb of video ram, I cannot
use XAA with it in 16bpp mode.

As such, in 16bpp mode, all pixels are double-width, and the screen
only displays the left hand side of the display.  Vertical pixels are unaltered
- as such all objects are distorted.

The machine uses Trident's Cyber9320 chipset and has a TFT screen.

Has anyone else suffered such problems?
