I'm running NetBSD 1.3 on a P475 and have noticed:

1. I get color on internal video using the new color X server, but the
colors are off: Red displays as a very dark (almost black) red, yellow
displays as blood read, green displays as magenta, and blue displays as
pea-green.

xsetroot -solid chocolate

displays a nice French blue...
(which was what I wanted).

I have my booter set to change my monitor to 256 colors (although that is
the default on my machine). Also, the X server displays a message saying
that it cannot read the video characteristics of my monitor from ROM, so it
will assume True Color.

2. (Unrelated to the new X server -- it always appeared): The picture seems
"shifted up" by 5 or 6 pixels, i.e., there is a band along the bottom of
the screen that shows whatever was on my mac screen before I booted up
NetBSD (this remains after I start up X).

And the top half of the characters (in the default mode -- before X is
started up) are chopped off. This is minor, of course...
