> On a SS20/SX (vsimm 8MB) I'm currently unable to get xfree working. Same here with aurora (rh7.3 port to sparc), so the problem seems to be X 4.x or the kernel, not debian. In my case the 32bpp helped to get X running - but led to hard lockups later. Not that this really helps you, but it might save some time while looking for the real problem. Sorry, Ingo
