You sure you got an console-LCD16-vx card - not an 18bit??

anyway to test... enable multiple depths as per my previous post...

$./configure -embedded arm -armfpa -depths 8,16,18,24 -qt-mouse-tslib
-qt-gfx-vnc -prefix /usr

if you are interested - here I have a bit of a howto on Qt4 and FPC /
Lazarus with a photo of the gumstix running.

also a screenshot here of the vnc viewer and Boa running on desktop
generated from gumstix

program runs on both the 18bit and 16bit boards with no changes.
