@vitamin: > No, you have to start separate X server with 16-bit color. True, but we can get "around" this by using "xinit" like this: Code: xinit /usr/bin/xterm -- :1 -ac -depth 16 (setting allowed_users=anybody in /etc/X11/Xwrapper.config, maybe required first). > However keep in mind both Nvidia and ATI drivers have issues with accelerating anything other then 24/32 bit modes. Where did You get that information from? OK, I don't know about ATI, but I use NVIDIA in 16 bit quite often, and it works like a charm.
