Hello all,
This should be a simple question: How do I make X( via xdm) go above a
color depth of 8.
My video "Device and screen sections are below:
----------------------
# Device configured by xf86config:
Section "Device"
Identifier "My Video"
VendorName "Video"
BoardName "Unknown"
#VideoRam 2048
# Use Option "nolinear" if the server doesn't start up correctly
# (this avoids the linear framebuffer probe). If that fails try
# option "nomemaccess".
#
# Refer to /usr/X11R6/lib/doc/README.S3, and the XF86_S3 man page.
# Insert Clocks lines here if appropriate
EndSection
# The accelerated servers (S3, Mach32, Mach8, 8514, P9000, AGX, W32, Mach64)
