The default is 256 colors, you can change that by running X as: startx -- -bpp 16/24/32 for better performance. You can add it by default to the conf. file, but I don't remember the name of the entry, somethinglike DefaultColorDepth, but I'm not sure, read the documentation. You can also edit a file in a users directory .xserverrc with the line #!/bin/sh exec X -- -bpp 16 HTH, Liran. --- http://www.math.tau.ac.il/~liranz/
