Running the dtest program on the PEX-SI on a SUN IPC with a dumb 8-bit
color display should perform the (pixmap) double buffering correctly.
However, if you have any of the other color options on your IPC, that
could be causing the problem. Since the image clearing is being performed
by an XFillRectangle call, I don't see any reason why it shouldn't work.
