[Linuxconsole-commit]Bug report about 8bpp mode

[li x. <xia...@ho...>]

Dear sir,

I download XFree86-4.2 from 
ftp.xfree86.org(directory:/pub/Xfree86/4.2.0/source),then unzip them,and do 
the following action:

1)compiling the XFree86 under redhat7.2 using "make World" 
2)restart the PC linux machine using the vga=769 mode(640*480 8bit)
3)run the "Xfbdev" generated in step 1
4)run the "twm" and "xterm" to prepare the environment
5)run the "gqview" to test a picture,then we can find 8 or 16 color is used 
to display the picture by system.

But if I telnet to this PC linux machine, then run the "Xfbdev" command,the 
picture can be displayed well because the system use 256 color.

This question really puzzle me,Could you help me?
