Several applications are failing to display correctly in X11, due to a problem with the display depths. I have been told I should have a "display depths" something like this: > xdpyinfo | grep depths > depths (7): 24, 1, 4, 8, 15, 16, 32 But instead, I get this: > xdpyinfo | grep depths > depths (1): 24 I include below my XF86Config file, can someone please tell me what to change?

Now far ahead the Road has gone and I must follow, if I can, Pursuing it with eager feet, until it joins some larger way Where many paths and errands meet. And whither then? I cannot say.
