If you run via startx, you can do startx -- -bpp 24 The two '-' between startx and -bpp are required. To set this to be the default, see the "Screen" section of your XF86Config file. The line you want in that section is: DefaultDepth 24 Make sure there's a display subsection for the 24 bit depth as well. The one I have is: Subsection "Display" Depth 24 Modes "1280x1024" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480" ViewPort 0 0 EndSubsection > > Gavin > mike -- ___________________________________________________________ "I AM FINE!
