2^8 = 256 colours
2^16 = 64 K colours
2^24 = 16 M colours
2^32 = 4 G colours
You could also have a DefaultColorDepth entry in /etc/X11/XF86Config like...
[...]
Section "Screen"
Driver "accel"
Device "S3 Trio64V2/DX (generic)"
Chances are, you are running X at 8bpp.
Thats the installation default. To run it with a different depth use
startx -- -bpp 16 or 24 or 32
I think 32 would correspond to millions of colors.

Hi folks,
Anybody out there displaying Cerius 2 output on a Linux box? This may
be a problem with other software as well, I'm not sure. When I use a
Debian Linux 2.0 machine to display this software, it gets the colors all
mixed up. I was able to fix the same problem on a Mac using X emulator
