When I start Xvfb with a 24-bit depth, the visuals are different than what you get with Xvfb 7.1. In addition, whereas Xvfb 7.1 has a TrueColor default visual, Xvfb 7.2 (in the server-1.2-branch) has a DirectColor default visual. This causes problems for Looking Glass. Was this change intentional or is it a bug? The reason why this is occuring is because the symbol XFree86Server is not defined while compiling fbcmap.c (this symbol is defined during the server compile in 7.1 but not in 7.2).
Sorry about the phenomenal bug spam, guys. Adding xorg-team@ to the QA contact so bugs don't get lost in future.

Wouldn't this be a bug in Looking Glass not being able to set the visual it wants or rejecting unusable ones? > The reason why this is occuring is because the > symbol XFree86Server is not defined > while compiling fbcmap.c (this symbol is defined during the server compile in > 7.1 but not in 7.2). fbcmap.c hasn't been included in the build in a while. Even if it was, I killed it when I fixed #5436 ten days ago.
