Hmm... I've now tried this, although my concern is more with getting it into
1024x768 than color depth... I've also tried the suggestion of changing the
order of resolutions so the one I want comes first. Neither works.
I'd appreciate anyone's help at looking at my XF86Config file below and
helping
to figure this out.
thanks,
Michael
