X Server for StrongARM

Hi,

Thanks for the quick reply.

After I read your reply, I thought of taking a screenshot of the
display and sending it to you. I did the following:

$ Xfbdev &
$ xeyes &
$ dd if=/dev/fb0 of=/tmp/scrshot

I was surprised to see the screenshot. Please see the screenshot in
the attachment. The screenshot shows the X cursor and the xeyes.

But on the LCD I get to see something different, which is difficult to
describe. I get to see a lot of 1 pixel thick colorful vertical lines,
along with a long white patch in between spaning from left to right.
Those 1 pixel thick vertical lines, continously keeps changing colors.

Regards,
Santhosh N
