Hello there;

I'm attempting to run DOS Box on a Sun Solaris machine -- I haven't seen anywhere specifically saying Solaris is supported, but it seems to compile fine anyway :)

BUT, when I try to run it, I get:

CONFIG: Using default settings. Create a configfile to change them
X Error of failed request: BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes)
Major opcode of failed request: 131 (MIT-SHM)
Minor opcode of failed request: 3 (X_ShmPutImage)
Serial number of failed request: 44
Current serial number in output stream: 45

Other people have had this bug, but it's gone without a solution.

Doing some research, this appears to be a colormap problem. I can only go up to 24 bpp mode, which is the mode I'm running right now. You think this is the problem, or you think it may be something else? Or should I give up? ;D

Changing the res of X under Solaris isn't very easy. It would be nice if it just ran under 24 bit, especially since chances are it's something silly that's preventing it :)

But in the interest of debugging, I'll swap to 16 bit and see what happens. :)
