- Another problem I noticed is that you can't run Space and Planet Atlas if
- your display is more than 256 colors. I'm currently running with 32,768, so
- I can't use either of those two modules. Unfortunately, some of the desktop
- colors and my wallpaper look terrible in 256 mode, so I just live without
- those modules.
