All right, my woes for this beast are down to one. For some reason,
if I try to run X directly in 8 bit color mode, I get only greyscale
output. Because the legacy application I am running doesn't work
properly with higher color depths (printing of displays doesn't
work), I cannot run at a higher color depth easily without
re-writing the application I am running.
Command is Xorg :0 -terminate -br +bs -depth 8
The display driver is intel I830
Anyone have any ideas?
I am coming in late on this, but have you thought of using xnest?
You could give the application its own X server running inside your
normal X server. It handles lower resolutions/colors then the main
server.
