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) Section "Screen" Driver "accel" Device "My Video" Monitor "Monitor" Subsection "Display" Depth 8 Modes "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480" ViewPort 0 0 EndSubsection Subsection "Display" Depth 16 Modes "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480" ViewPort 0 0 EndSubsection Subsection "Display" Depth 24 Modes "800x600" "640x480" ViewPort 0 0 EndSubsection Subsection "Display" Depth 32 Modes "800x600" "640x480" ViewPort 0 0 EndSubsection EndSection
