Ok.  After I ran xsetup.sh my .xserverrc had the following:

Code Sample

exec /usr/bin/X11/Xfbdev -2button -mouse /dev/psaux -nolisten tcp -I &>/dev.null


I added -screen 800x600 and removed the boot option 'vga=771'.  I get the following error:

Code Sample

Using X resolution from previously selcted of default settings.
If you want to change the resolution, run 'xsetup.sh'



giving up.
xinit: Connection refused (errno 111): unable to connect to X server
xinit: No such process (errno 3): Server error

Why did you remove the vga=771?

Anyhow, after running xsetup.sh and choosing what you prefer, there's no need to manually add options... just back the file up.

back the file up?  You mean make a copy of it somewhere safe or do you mean something else?

I took out the vga=771 because I thought it might be overriding the .xserverrc setup and/or it might be the wrong code.  I have put it back in.  Here is what I have done:

inside my /boot/grub/menu.lst is the following:
Code Sample

kernel /boot/linux24 root-/dev/hda2 quiet vga=771 noacpi noapm nodma noscsi frugal


Inside my /home/dsl/.filetool.lst is the following:
Code Sample

opt/ppp
opt/bootlocal.sh
opt/powerdown.sh
opt/.dslrc
opt/.mydsl_dir
home/dsl/
home/dsl/.xserverrc

(where I added the fiinal line)

and my .xserverrc file is:
Code Sample

exec /usr/bin/X11/Xfbdev -2button -mouse /dev/psaux -nolisten tcp -I &>/dev.null


The colors are still incorrect.

But..  if I reboot, wait for the desktop to load, then open a shell and type startx, then the color is fine.  Its almost as though the settings are not getting saved, or not getting started properly.
