Basically, I have a creator3D series 3 ffb+ card.
8bit graphics is fine.
But any 24bit setting of application causes the screen to become tinted yellow.
For example if i run opera and netscape; netscape becomes yellow while opera which uses 8bit remains fine.
In forced 24bit mode the entire screen is yellow, with darker yellow and blue blocks appering around text randomally.
My usually wm is gnome, but now thats impossible to use.
Someone previously suggested that i use fbbconfig -deflinear true -g 1.1
That only make the yellow more lighter.
That still leaves the problem of the random blue and yellow blocks that appear about bits of text.
I'm using solaris 8 with the latest drivers and patchs on a sun ultra 10 333 machine.
I would be grateful for any other help(or do i have a screwed up card).
thx
