I want to run X in 16 bpp mode. I know I can type "startx -- -bpp 16",
but I want to automate this so that all I have to do is type startx and
it knows I want 16 bpp. Is there a way to put this information into an
existing config file? I don't want to have to create a separate script
to run X that simply contains "startx -- -bpp 16". Thanks in advance.
BTW, I finally got XFree86 3.2 installed!!! I'm sooo happy to be rid of
MetroX :-)
