I'm not a XConfig expert but my guess is that you don't have any modes
defined for Depth 16bpp on Screen0.
It looks like you have screen0 setup only to do 8bpp

I have a dual-head setup. I used 'X -configure' to get the basics and then changed a few 
things. Whenever I try to change the color depth, I get a hard-lock when I try to start X. 
I want to both screens at 16bpp. Does anyone see anything wrong?
Section "Screen"
        Identifier "Screen0"
        Device     "Card0"
        Monitor    "Monitor0"
        SubSection "Display"
                Depth     1
        EndSubSection
        SubSection "Display"
                Depth     4
        EndSubSection
        SubSection "Display"
                Depth     8
                Modes     "1024x768" "800x600"
        EndSubSection
        SubSection "Display"
                Depth     15
        EndSubSection

                Depth     16
        EndSubSection                   <=====================
        SubSection "Display"
                Depth     24
        EndSubSection
EndSection
I did have modes there, but it didn't matter much. If I specify 'DefaultDepth 16' or 
'DefaultDepth 24', the system hard-locks. The weird thing is that 16- or 24-bpp work with 
the ATI card and 16-bpp works with the other.
