Hi. I don't know why but when I run xmodetest it only returns 8 bpp modes. My system is Sparc Ultra10/Creator, with Solaris 2.6.
When setting the driver I use: GrSetDriver("XWIN");
If I use XWIN1,4,8,16 or 24 the code says it cannot find the driver. Is there any special setting to do? I've downloaded the patch, but I think I messed up with the + (add), -(delete) and ! (???) stuff. Also, some of the files referred in the patch have diff dates from the files I've just downloaded from GRX site. Why?
Well, I guess your X11 runs in 256 color mode. GRX can only use the mode the X11 server provides.
Last time I checked a SparcStation 10 it also worked in 8bpp color mode.
