Re: display settings

Hi Harold,

Usually I run 256 Color or 32 bit on Windows, but I'm not sure if the X 
application is expecting Pseudo or TrueColor. Could you tell me how to find 
that out?

I looked around and found a depth setting on the Xwin application. Didn't 
have time to test it out today though, so will have a look at that tomorrow.

On Linux, I think there's a config file under /etc/X11 where you can put in 
the display settings, but couldn't find this on cygwin/xfree86.

JS.
