Well, i don't know a lot about displays, so i'm gonna give you my
configuration:
I have a Pentium running the last versions of Linux and XFree86. My
graphic card is a STB Velocity 3D (S3Virge VX) with 4MB ram, and my
monitor is a Sony Multiscan200sf.
I have no problems with applications like xv, ImageMagick, as well as
several MPEG viewers.

I new with Xforms, so i'm sorry that i can resolve this problem on my
own.

I'm developping an application that deals with bmp images, and i need to
display several images at the same time on my screen. The only solutions
i have is to do it with ImageMagick or, wich would be more convenient,
using Xforms.

Thanks for helping.
