Have you created a new XF86Config file?
	XFree86 -configure (I think) then tweak the output

If you're using startx, you may have install Xwrapper and create a
~${HOME}/.xserverrc file:

#!/bin/sh
Xdepth="-bpp 16"

if [ -x /usr/X11R6/bin/Xwrapper ] ; then
        exec /usr/X11R6/bin/Xwrapper -auth $HOME/.Xauthority ${Xdepth}
else
        exec X -auth ${HOME}/.Xauthority ${Xdepth}
fi

BTW - Xdepth is depreicated, but the script works for me.

See how that works.
