yeah, its not fVDI, because when you place a new fVDI (or the one from
AFROS) on PACK_3D nothing changes, 1.16.3 works fine with any newer
version of fVDI. This confirms the fact that none of your fVDI changes
had any affect.

The only other thing I noticed was the the reported pixel format
seemed "wierd" to me "E8E800". It made me wonder if EmuTOS had
something to do with it, reporting what XaAES though to be "an invalid
format".

ALAN: cvs -r checkout -r branch-1_16 freemint

Now I have the 1.16.3 sources (I presume) I can do some checking at
source level, I have a hunch it may be a "motorola format" pixel that
is expected, but it is getting an intel format, maybe, I wont know
until I look, atm I'm just guessing, I honestly think its a lot
simpler than that..
