when i boot 9legacy I set the resolution as 1024x768 then select [xga]. According to this page http://plan9.bell-labs.com/wiki/plan9/setting_the_right_monitor_size/ 1024x768 is a valid option for xga. However rio fails to start and if I select the default resolution rio renders 3 black windows and the colours are inverted. To view the text in anyone of the windows I have to select another one for the text to appear. Any advice?

a depth needs to be specified as well, 1024x768x16, for example.
the inverted colors may be due to some draw problems that russ
fixed years ago, but may not be in 9legacy, i'm not sure.
