Remember how last week we went to rev 20 of patch 105362 so that the
PGX24 would reliably work at 1152x900?

Today I got a patch to test that solves the problem we reported 6 months
ago that the Open GL colors in 8 bit mode were not as good as the
Sparc-5 Open GL 8 bit colors.

What should we do?

I feel some obligation at least to load this patch onto a machine and
rerun the openGL test and confirm that it remedies the problem we saw.

Do we also wish to consider incorporating it into the Athena release?


I've stashed the file into /mit/solarisdev/patches/105362-21.tar.Z
