800x600 8bpp uses accelleration, 800x600 16bpp won't, why?
Hi Folks,
I have an IBM Thinkpad 560. I got it to work at 800x600 16bpp
using an external monitor, but it is MUCH slower than usual. The
X Server reports that it does not have enough video RAM to use
acceleration. The acceleration works just fine at 8bpp.
I have 1 MEG video RAM, and a Trident Cyber 9382.
Does it actually need more than 1 MEG of video RAM to use the
acceleration? Or is somethis else wrong?
Any advise/clues welcome,
John
