lattice wireframe with logarithmically scaled axis?

Hi,

I have some questions for the wireframe function of the lattice package. My dataset's "x-data" are sampled logarithmically and as such I would like to have a semilogarithmic 3D plot when plotting a time series. Does anyone know how to change the example in
http://addictedtor.free.fr/graphiques/sources/source_40.R
such that x or y would be logarithmically scaled?

Also, I would like to change the color scale such that it does not scale from min to max, but from min to a value below max. Is this possible? How? 

TIA,
Christian

The scales information in help(wireframe) refers you to the  
corresponding section of help(xyplot) where an example of changing the  
scales to logarithmic base 2 on the x axis is presented. A  
modification to the arguments in your example restricted to the  
positive-positive quadrant succeeds:
