Description lkazali 2000-04-03 01:14:49 UTC 
While I was installing Red Hat 6.1, I have noticed that you do not have
support for moniters with 24bpp.  You only have support for 8, 16, and 32
bpp.

My moniter is made by Sony and it is 24bpp 600x800 and I could not switch
to 32 bpp, because it will blink, and if I switch to 16 the font would be
too big and not clear, also the screen would be too be big.

I hope in your upcoming rekiese of 6.2 this errer is corrected.

Please let me know

32bpp is a synonym for 24bpp, monitors can handle infinite colors, it is your
video card that limits how many colors you can display.
