[XFree86] How to reduce the over head of one bit appending in 24 bit RGB image display?

[Subbiah]

Hi,   I am getting the RGB value of the image in 24 bits. So I have Started my application in 24 bit color depth.   I am planning to use the XPutImage function for displaying the RGB value of the images.   My application reports the depth as 24 but the bpp ( bits per pixel ) as 32?.   So for my Ximage, I need to append one bit of information to get them in 32 bits.   Is there any way to set the bpp as 24, so that My overhead on the one bit appending on each RGB value will go off.   Thanks.
