I have a Diamond Speedstar Pro and am running the svga server.

VGA: chipset:  clgd5429
SVGA: videoram: 1024k

When I try:

startx -- -bpp 16

the screen locks up and the colors are strange (black screen, odd green
lines at top of screen).   After a couple of minutes I can move the mouse
around the screen as long as I don't move it over the xterm window, at
which time it locks up again.

I can run at -bpp 8 ok.

Can anyone tell me how to fix this?

Thanks
