[Bug 589331] [NEW] x display does not display more than 8 bit color on imac g3

 

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xorg

I've tried various xorg.conf files that I've been able to find on the
internet in support forums and so forth, but nothing seems to give me
very good color. it's all 8 bit it seems. Some config files give me a
gui, and others fail outright...

I'm using 10.04, and I get a message about low-resolution mode, but the
resolution itself seems ok, it's the color that I'm concerned about.

Another thing is that dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg doesn't seem to do
anything.
