rdesktop without windowmanager



Hi!

I have a problem starting X in a script and then rdesktop.
What the script does:
1. Starts X in 8 bits per pixel mode on a new vt
2. Starts rdekstop with width and height values.

So if you try this you only get a black screen from rdesktop. I believe this 
has somewhat to do with the colour mapping, because if you start a window 
manager like twm between the starting of the X Server and rdesktop all works 
fine.
But normally for starting only one application under an X Server I do not 
need a windowmanager.

So what am I doing wrong?
