The command you want is xdpyinfo.  It will spit out a couple pages of
text.  What you're looking for is the depth value.  It will be 24 planes
if you're in 32 bit mode.  If you're not, then you need to change the
command you're using to start X.  If you running xdm (gdm, wdm, kdm,
whatever) then the file to edit is /etc/X11/[xgwk]dm/Xserver.  Add '-bpp
32' to the end of the command that runs X.  Or, if you use startx to run
X, add '-- -bpp 32' to the end of your arg list.

HTH,
noah
