Great! Thank you for your efforts.
But please don't include the same copy twice (XNtUx.exe vs. Xvfb.exe)

By the way, if you look e.g. into
ftp://sunsite.doc.ic.ac.uk/Mirrors/ftp.xfree86.org/pub/XFree86/4.0/binaries/Linux-ix86-glibc21
you will find that Xprt, Xnest, Xvfb and Xps are all distributed
separately.

I'm getting

After that the upper 3/4 of the screen becomes black. I can change the
color by using xsetroot, but the color is incorrect. Whatever I specify,
the color is between black and green.

However, this works much better that it used to work with the previous
server:
XNtUx.exe :0 -screen 0 1024x768x16

I'm getting the full screen of "root weave"! Great job.
"xsetroot -solid blue" makes the screen red and vice versa. Green is Ok.

I can run applications, and they look great except that the colors are
swapped (blue<->red).

I'm using Ati Mach 64, WinNT 4 WS, SP6, latest drivers, 1024x768x16.

Input is still not accepted. I don't know if it's supposed to be. "xev"
doesn't report any mouse or keyboard events.
