If that failed again would you be able to test in fixed packages once available? Thanks Tom
RedHat 6.6 was tried and the default depth was found to always be 16bpp. While different configurations of the xorg.conf file were attempted, the default depth could not be changed. Since the default depth could not be set to 24bpp, the issue was not replicated. Was this the intended solution? Because as it stands, our clients will not be satisfied if they cannot set the depth to 24bpp.
