I think the best 8-bit performance will result if you "downshift" the
Windows desktop to 256 colors and run XWin in windowed mode, which will
allow it to use the DirectDraw engine.

Hy!
Im using Cygwin XFree on a Acer Travelmate 634lci with Windows XP (
Color 32 bit )
my Application running on OpenVMS.
I have to use 8 Bit Colormode for correct display.
When i start X with the command:
X -ac -fullscreen -depth 8 &
The display is ok, but the perfomane is unuseabel.
When i use :
X -ac -fullscreen -emulatepseudo &
Then the Applicationdisplay isn't working correct.
Does anyone have a idea how I can use 8bit-colored Application with good
performace on
Cygwin Xwin
I'm sure anybody outthere has an solution for my problem, so let me
know.
Thanks & best regards
Harry
