It works very well on my LC475 in both 256 colour grey scale and 16 bit
colour. The colours look correct and the performance is very good - no
jerkiness at all in either mode. Well done!

Unfortunately my machine can only take 1 MB of video ram, so I can only run
at 832x624 in 16 bit mode :-(. Life can be very hard sometimes...

Unfortunately the kernel obviously has the wrong idea of the layout of video
ram, as in 16 bit mode the screen is a bit screwed up (the edge of the screen
is offset to the left by about 100 pixels so it wraps around) - it's nothing
to do with the X server, as the same thing happens to the internal video
console. It shouldn't be hard for me to work out what is going wrong and fix
it.
