There are several graphics chipsets which don't support DRI
(acceleration) in 24-bit mode.  ATI Rage 128 is one of them (very common
in somewhat older laptops).  I need to use 16-bit cause 24-bit makes the
system noticeably slower.

Conversely, what would it hurt to put export XLIB_SKIP_ARGB_VISUALS=1 in
the firefox start-up script?  Would it change the appearance or
functionality of anything in any way?
