1. Fonts:
Xs3 cannot find some fonts such as 7x14B, whereas it finds other fonts eg 7x14
in the same directory. None of the fonts in 75dpi are found.
The font path and fonts.dir are OK. Any ideas on what
is going on?

2. Resolution:
I have an Actix Graphics engine 32+ with 2 Mb, but for 1280x1024, it says too
little memory. Is there a quick fix i can apply to Xs3 to display higher
resolutions / more than 256 colors?

3. Is there a FAQ listing which features are / are not supported by Xs3?

4. What is the latest news about the XFree86/XS3 merging?
