Hmm..interesting. Support for bunches of Pixmap depths simultaneously.
Just for kicks, what's the output of "fxtv -debug startup" look like (just
the part before it starts talking about FONT stuff)? You should see fxtv
chosing your 24-bpp visual to work in. Pretty sure it will; just want to
sanity check this.
BTW, you're frame buffer is running in 24-bpp, right? I'm slightly puzzled
by the fact that the "default visual id" is your 8-bpp PseudoColor visual.
OR, if you in fact "are" running your frame buffer in 8-bpp, and the Xaccel
server doesn't handle 24-bit ximages in 8-bpp mode, this just might explain
the black screen you're seeing :-)
If you are running your frame buffer in 8-bpp, just for kicks, change this
line in tvscreen.c:
case PseudoColor : rank = 2; break;
to this:
case PseudoColor : rank = 1000; break;
Which should force use of the PseudoColor visual. See if that makes any
difference :-)
