Colorbit 32 does not exist in Linux [SOLVED]

Post by dusted »

Hi, I get the error "Unable to find screen display mode: 1024x768 at 32"
Which is pretty obvious, since X don't support alpha channel, therefore, it is 24 bit color depth.

I'm running 1600x1200 at 24 bit, and is able to run 1024x768 at 24 bit aswell.

Referring to the readme in the installation dir, I should be able to tell it to run in 16 o 24 bit with the "displayColorDepth" option...
Oh.. the option is named displayColorDepth16= WHAT THE BLEEP, i assumed it was a typo.. hehe, it works, nevermind, but I got so worked up about it that I'm posting anyway (hey.. I made an account, better use it)

displayColorDepth16=1
