well, strangest thing just happened!
I was testing around with this to check if it affected the mouse.
SubSection "extmod"
Option "omit xfree86-dga"
EndSubSection
what I found is that, when having it like this:
SubSection "extmod"
# Option "omit xfree86-dga"
EndSubSection
the colors of glx opengl was dark and un-pretty, but when I removed the
comment again and restarted X the colors where back to "normal" the yellow
bright hue I like! Apparently xfree86-dga somehow affects the
color-rendering... Anyone have any idea why?
