I tried this with my two cg 6s and a zx on an Axil 320. What I ended
up doing was linking the two cg6s into a seperate X display so that
the zx was :0 and the two gxs were :1.0 and :1.1. What this does is
perserve the 24bit on :0 while giving :1 the spread.

I've had bad luck doing this kind of thing with cg6s. Most sun cards
don't support sync on green. I've gotten this to work with SGI
equipment (SGIs are sync on green by default I belive).
