Can anyone tell me how to change the default startup color depth from 8bpp
to 16bpp?
I am running:
- Mandrake-Linux 6.0
- PCI Matrox Millennium II card with 4 megs of ram
- PCI Voodoo2 card with 8 megs of ram
I got the Voodoo2 drivers installed last night but that was no help. I have
manually started the X server in 16bpp color mode but I can't cycle up to
16bpp colors from 8bpp with <ctrl><alt>+. I need 16bpp to run Quake3.
Is there an init file I can edit to add the '-- -bpp 16' settings to? I've
tried a lot and learned a lot but this has me stumped! ;.-(

Try using XF86Setup. Color depth can be modified quite easily there.
