No thanks to Ubuntu support (or lack thereof), a fellow owner of a Dell
3000 / Intel-865G provided me the solution:
Create / edit / save this file ('vi', notepad, et al):
/usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/00-xorg.conf that contains the following
content:
Section Screen
Identifier Default Screen
In any case, how to I set the depth to 24, regardless of the arguments
and indecision over the default setting?
Note X -configure is problematic.
