16/24bpp is only supported in some servers and only for some cards.
Neither ET4000 in the SVGA server nor the W32 server support it.

1. Setting X to display in 16, 24, and 32 bit color mode.

I was playing with X for some time, but I couldn't figure out how to set
it to work in 16, 24, and 32-bit color mode.  I have a
#9 771video card w/2M of VRAM.
Also ones in a while I get a message saying that some program (usually
Netscape) cannot allocate the default background
color.  What does that mean and how can I fix that?

Thanx for your time
