I have just installed the Xcl X11R6 server for my Picasso2 (1M RAM) board.
I have used ListModes to convert the standard Villiage-38 monitor
definition file to something that grfconfig will eat.
I have a couple of questions:
1. Do I need to add "grfconfig /dev/gf3 /etc/grfmode" to /etc/rc.local, or
are the definitions persistent after doing a grfconfig?
2. I have started the X server with an 800x600x256 display, and it work
perfectly *except* that the pointer is corrupt. Instead of being the
normal arrow, it is a set of vertical lines. When the pointer changes
the corrupted pointer changes, but it does not seem to restore itself.
Is there something else I need to do?
Thanks,
Phil.
