Quoting James Linder <j...@tigger.ws>: > Can your monitor resolve 16 vs 24 colour? maybe but maybe not.
Almost definitely, unless it's a really old LCD one. You can see the difference even from the default LDM login screen. At 16-bit, the blue background is noticeably barred with distinct colour bands. > There is no reason to choose 32 or 24 over 16. If you do see a > difference it is hardware rather than software.

There's really no difference between the visual appearance of 24-bit to 32-bit colour, most drivers do not distinguish between these two SFAIK. RGB information is always 8-8-8, sometime 32-bit can mean an alpha channel. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Color_depth#True_color_.2824-bit.29 I don't think there's anyone using deep colour with X is there? I'd be interested to know if I'm wrong. cheers, == From Ben Green ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF email is sponsosred by: Try Windows Azure free for 90 days Click Here http://p.sf.net/sfu/sfd2d-msazure _____________________________________________________________________ Ltsp-discuss mailing list.
