>vpix. Looks like no one has done this on Tom's server under X11r4.

There is *now* support for running VPIX under xterm (X11R4). This will be available
together with the new server. It will become available in the next few weeks. But
don't ask me when exactly. There are some things to do. You'll here about it, when
the time has come.

What about a resolution of 1152x900 in 256 colors on a SuperVGA board ?
Yes it's running !!!!
