| Are you sure your X server is running at 16bpp?
| VMware looks convinced that you're at 24/32bpp
| (meaning 24 bits of actual data but 32 bits of
| space per pixel).

about as sure as I can be; the XF86Config didn't have a Display
subsection for anything other than 16bpp. I just set up a 24bpp entry
and ran the server under that to see what would happen, and vmware told
me my server's DGA extension doesn't support the mode.
