Re: Color-capable X server
This is from FAQ at ftp.netbsd.com.
=======================================================
9.14. Black & White X Windows is cool, but what about color?
:
:
In order to run in color you need two things: kernel support for
color video and an X server which understands this support. You can
obtain a color-capable X server which is compatible with the NetBSD
1.3 X distribution from the following location:
<ftp://ftp.macbsd.com/pub/NetBSD/X/Xmac68k_color.tar.gz>
=======================================================
I have a few questions on this part.
1) Does the 1.3.3 kernel (kern.tgz) support color video?
2) Can I install Xmac68k_color.tar.gz like kern.tgz (with the installer)? O
r is it have to be transferred directly to a NetBSD partition? Or else?
3) Does Xmac68k_color.tar.gz correspond only to xserver.tgz, that is, do I
need xbase.tgz xcomp.tgz x contrib.tgz and xfont.tgz in addition to use X?
I appreciate your reply.
