My machine has only 1MB video memory (at least I think, anyone know how to get the machine to report the amount?). As it is now, I'm stuck with my display color depth of 8 bits because of this. Does this pose any limitation to the color depth of the images I want to grab from my videum capture card? I would think not, and that I could just serve these images or streams to another PC on my network that has a better video card. However when running v4l-conf, it wants to get my color depth from the current display (:0.0) and that is 8bits. There's a frame-buffer argument, but I don't really understand it. I think it requires that I have a different display (framebuffer?) in my XF86Config file. Ideas? Thanks, Joe __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
