I have a problem with XAccel.  

When ever I load XAccel I don't get a piointer for my curser.  Instead I 
get a big (approx 1X1 in.) white box.  Mosaic doesn't open at all. 
Netscape dosen't open properly.  The problem with Netscape is that some 
of its buttons located on top of the window is black.  I can't see the 
bottons.  I can't see a virtual desktop window (is there virtual desktop 
for XAccel?)  Also, I can't open the mailbox.

When I close XAccel, I see on the screen 
	"Don't know how to format image for display of depth 15"
	"X Error:  Bad Drawable (invalid Pixmap or Window parameter)"
	" Major Opcode: 14"

What does this mean and how can I correct it?

I am using a ATI March64, MEG DX15F monitor, running off a P-133.

My setup is the following:
	Board = "ati/turbo2.xqa"  ( I also tried Graphics Xpression)
	Monitor = "mfreq/mfreq64.vda"  (I tried the MEG 17 in moitors as well)
	Depth = 15
	Visual = True Color
	Desktop = 1024x768
	Resolution = 1024x768

Any help is highly appreciated.

Thank you
