However, upon rebooting with vesa in 1600x1200x16 mode, I'm seeing strange artifacts when using vncv and fgb's equis; an example from vnc is shown at http://csplan9.rit.edu/users/john/ugh.png Is this a problem with the programs, or with the driver? I didn't see anything relating to this in a quick 9fans search, but then I may have been using the wrong search terms. If anyone has other programs to test, I'd be interested to hear; I'm finding that vesa works nicely on my terminal in terms of speed, and I'm not seeing any difference in 16 bit vs. 32 bit color.
