[ale] X in 16 or 32bpp?

[Robert L Harris]

I finally got XFree86 working on my AST laptop.  My problem now is that
it's running at 800x600 (I can live with that) at 8bpp color (256) which
is sad.  How would I try and force it to 16?  I've modified my XF86Config
file to add a 16bpp section, but can't get it to use it.  Anyone got
any ideas?  My video adapter is 2Meg.
