Hello once more,

I got the mga4xx driver going by commenting
out the three lines that produce compile
errors. They were calls to trace, so I
presume it's just debugging code. Under
my old plan9.ini with display settings
set to 1024x768x8 the driver works fine,
which is good, however under 1024x768x32
the display seems to initialize however
I get a grey screen with a blue rectangle
on the left which is the same width as
the clock that is supposed to be there.
Menus and windows don't appear, but the cursor
seems to work properly. HW accel is turned off.
It's very frustrating because I have this
picture of Lianne snifting brandy, who
I _had_ this really big crush on, but
I hate seeing it dithered. I don't get
the same feeling of supreme power as I do
when I prod her with my mouse cursor at
32bits.

Sigh, 

ph.
