In my experience, zgv also works much better when your graphics card
only does a few colors. Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't there a
version of zgv that works in X?
I don't have one - if I use it under X I get full-screen images without any X.


You can get quite good output from xli with 640x480x12 or better.

There is no 12-bit color, it will display at 15-bit if available or 8-bit if not. I think BL3.40 was changed to 15 not 12.

I manually edited Xconfig to
1024x768x24 (if I have 4MB video RAM, or 16 for 2MB)

24-bit (truecolor) images would display probably faster and better at 24-bit, so for 2MB video try

800x600x24
