The X11.INSTALL says that the CV64 would support 8,15,16,24,32(!?)
planes, however the ReadCVMonitor-1.0 "comments" the >8bit modes in
the grfmodes file?

Why is this?

Can I "decomment" them for usage?

Besides that, grfcv and grfconfig say (when booting) that the modi 9,
10 and 13 exceed the pixelclock. Probably this is due to the fact,
that I set ADVANCED as tooltype in CGXMode. How can I avoid those
warnings during booting?

TIA
