openwin in 16bpp

Post by Faisal Hame » Fri, 26 Apr 1996 04:00:00



I have been able to enter startx for 16bpp using "startx -bpp 16" but
it won't work with openwin. Is there a way I can set my x-server
default to 16bpp instead of 8bpp so if I enter openwin it will take
the default value of 16bpp. Uptil now I go into "startx -bpp 16"
and then change my window manager to olvwm and it works fine.

Thanks...

edit /usr/X11/bin/startx

add -bpp 16 after severflag

that`s it, but I think there is a small prob with openwin in 16 bpp
namely some colors go wrong.

 
 
 

1. Openwin 16bpp problem

Whenever I run X in 16 or 24 bit color mode, everything works fine. But
if I start up Openwindows (or switch window managers in X), everything
goes black and white-sort of. The background menu (right mouse button)
is black-on-white, with no '3-d' look, and the all titlebars are the
same way. Apps can run color, though.

Any ideas?
