/etc/X11/xdm/Xservers contains the list of local servers to be managed by xdm (unless you changed something). It has the command-lines which are used to start up the servers. Add the '-bpp 16' to the command line. For instance, in my /etc/X11/xdm/Xservers, I have a line: :0 DEC-P90 local /usr/X11R6/bin/XF86_S3 :0 Which would change to :0 DEC-P90 local /usr/X11R6/bin/XF86_S3 :0 -bpp 16 to have 16 bits-per-pixel. Yes, my friend, had you Read The Fine xdm Manpage you would have easily discovered the answer. -- Jens B.
