All this works
(**) GLINT(0): Depth 8, (--) framebuffer bpp 8
(**) GLINT(0): Depth 15, (--) framebuffer bpp 16
(**) GLINT(0): Depth 16, (--) framebuffer bpp 16
(**) GLINT(0): Depth 24, (--) framebuffer bpp 32
(--) Depth 24 pixmap format is 32 bpp

Depth 1 and 4 don't.

If I quit X, the color of the console is fuckup up: forground color is
green, grey and somethings black (this sucks ;-)), all depending on the
depth.

Xdm doesn't work. It tries to start X, but fails.
