Just adding a me too data point. sysinfo says that my video card is:
Intel Corporation 82845G/GL [Brookdale-G]/GE Chipset Integrated Graphics Device
(rev 01) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller])
Subsystem: Intel orporation Device 5641
For me, the really broken part was flash video such as youtube

Just implemented fix in #51. Default Depth 24 is definately preferred,
no obvious performance detriment (using a gen 2 chip). I'd call this a
bug!

Problem still here in xubuntu 14.04 nightly build of december 28 2013, on HP
d530/U with 82865G Integrated Graphics Controller.
Workaround of post#51 is still working.

Same problem here on HP Compaq dx2000 MT with Intel 82865G video card: the
installation of xubuntu 13.04 defaults to 15bpp. The xubuntu desktop is better
at 32bpp, and also remmina remote destkop application has problems with 15bpp.
Flash player videos are completely unwatchable (totally wrong
Craig: I'm curious, what apps are you seeing looking bad because of
this; my understanding from what Chris is saying and from your xdpyinfo
is that it's just the default that's 16, so any app that wants to do
nice graphics should be able to ask for the highest quality visual
rather than the
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
You'd expect wrong, the default on gen2 is depth 15.

Fairly recent, I only changed the default for SNA so you would only have
experienced the change on the switch in raring. Considering the
limitations upon hardware, the change is advisable for both gen2 and
gen3 (more so for gen2 than gen3), and a very popular customisation
amongst gen2 users.

OK, fair enough. IMHO it would have been a good idea to put something
in a release note or the like - I don't think I've seen any other PC
system default to 15bpp for many years.

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.

Hi,
Can you add to this bug report the output of dmesg and your
/var/log/Xorg.0.log please.
I think if you run
apport-collect 1173649
I think it should add that and loads of other stuff.

From your Xorg.0.log:
[40.999] (==) intel(0): Depth 15, (--) framebuffer bpp 16
[40.999] (==) intel(0): RGB weight 555
so that's saying the default is 15bit

I went down the path of attempting to create an xorg.conf file and gave

Chris can you explain that statement please; he's seeing 15bpp, I'd
expect 24bpp and that's what I've seen everywhere else.
