Other framebuffer depths seem to be compiled as modules. The netwinder config.in has: CONFIG_FBCON_MFB=m CONFIG_FBCON_CFB2=m CONFIG_FBCON_CFB4=m CONFIG_FBCON_CFB8=y CONFIG_FBCON_CFB16=m CONFIG_FBCON_CFB24=m CONFIG_FBCON_CFB32=m In theory, then, you should be able to "modprobe fbcon-cfb24" and then fbset --depth 24, or whatever. p.
