Change your /etc/X11/XF86Config so that the preferred colour depth is first in
the screen section, viz:
Section "Screen"
Driver "svga"
Device "Matrox G400"
Monitor "HP D8901A"
Subsection "Display"
Depth 32 # insert in preferred bpp order
Modes "1024x768" "640x480"
ViewPort 0 0
EndSubsection
EndSection
Then restart your X server with Ctrl-Alt-Bksp.
