Could you please send me the information on how to change my 16 bit color
to 256 color. I have tried through my display settings but when I restart my
computer it goes right back to 16 bits.

hardware that can display 256 bits per pixel = 2^256 colors.

That lists the choices that the server can make on startup. The actual

The simplest way is
can anyone tell me how to build an xterm with 256 colors using the
