'X' emulating Monochome displays ?

[Duncan Anderson]

Vince,

I am sure you can find an X Server for monochrome displays. There always 
used to be one. I am not sure about current versions of Ubuntu, but I 
have used monochrome X servers for many years. The first one I used was 
X11 version 3 running on SCO Xenix 386 version 2.3 in about 1989. It was 
called "XSight" and there was a monochrome version, a 16 colour VGA 
version, and a 256 colour SVGA version. I am currently running a 
Mandrake 7.2 box as a CD writing server with XFree86 in monochrome mode. 
I am sure it can be done on Ubuntu.

cheers
Duncan
