I don't know about the 8 bit problem but I believe there is a bug in the
24bit mode of the SVGA server on Virge's.  Does your netscape have B/W
icons on the toolbar instead of color in 24bit mode?  I get this on my
Virge/VX diamond stealth 3d 3000.  Panel also dumps core in the same
function as you mention.  I think the problem is with the SVGA server
since XF86_S3V works fine for me.  I have submitted a bug report to the
Xfree people.
