Hello,
Thanks folks for all your input. I played with
xdpyinfo, xwininfo and read the man pages for
startx etc etc.
So the colour depth is set with the DefaultColorDepth
in the /etc/X*config file and it works like a
charm.
Oh ... I had not realised that slackware 7.0 CD actually
had gnome stuff .... I installed it, swapped from xdm to
gdm ... wow!! ... was I impressed with enlightenment.
(and all in 24bit colour ...) :-)
[I used to use fvwm & olvwm ...]
Thanks once again to you all. I certainly have enjoyed
playing with Linux thus far ... always has some excitement
in store ... and I hope my next task of getting
internet going and setting linux as a web proxy will
be as interesting.
Enjoy.
Regards,
Rajnish
