Hmm...Since you would seem to be an xinside rep, I have a question.  I 
have an S3 805 based videocard.  XFree uses this card beatifully at 16 
bpp.  AccelX refuses to use it at more than 8 bpp.  AccelX also tends to 
crash drawing windows.  Are these problems scheduled to be fixed in the 
next release?  I will not buy your product until such time as it meets my 
needs.  I tried the demo, these were the problems encountered.  Will they 
be fixed?
