   32 and 24 bpp have the same color resolution (only 24 bits).
If what you are seeing is banding, it's probably a driver issue.
Laptop panels typically only have 18 bits of color resolution
and this becomes visible if the graphics hardware isn't dithering
from 24 => 18 bits.  At least in the case of the "nv" driver for
NVIDIA chips, there is an Option "FPDither" to turn that on.  I
don't know if other drivers support such options.
