OpenSUSE Hardware :: How To Discover The Colour Depth
Aug 22, 2010
I have KDE in openSUSE 11.3 64 bit and an ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4300 Series video card
and these drivers:
Driver: "radeon"
Driver Modules: "drm"
XFree86 v4 Server Module: radeonhd
I suspect it's caught in low res colour. How do I find what resolution color I'm running, and how do I adjust it if it is low?

1. Identify what my current color depth setting are? (default opensuse 11.4 KDE install)
2. How do I change it? Am assuming it is set to 32bit now, would like to set it to 24.
The reason is my little netbook really burns up when i play a video.. acer aspire one and one of the reason why I installed linux over windows 7 was that I wanted my laptop to run faster ... apart from the fact that I would have installed suse anyways!!

I have a few kde3 apps installed on my kde4 11.2 system. I was wondering if there is a way to get the colour scheme that I use in kde4 to work with the kde3 apps (in particular amarok 1.4.10).

Opensuse 11.3 with kde 4.4.xx
Having a problem with the menu font colour in GTK apps (firefox & thunderbird).
All menus in all other apps have the correct font colour (black) but as you can see in this screenshot the font colour is white for thunderbird.
The only way I can find to change the text to black is to change in Configure Desktop > Appearance > Colours The setting for "selected text" to black.
Now I could be wrong - but I am pretty sure this should not be the setting that effects the menu colour in GTK apps.
Here are the colour settings I presently have
how to correct this? Did not have this issue in 11.2
Using QTCurve window style Have also set GTK Style and Fonts to use QTcurve and KDE font settings.
I do remember QTCurve in Opensuse had a button to apply its settings to KDE3 & GTK apps but this is not present in the QTCurve version on 11.3

My VX3000 webcam seems to be recognized by skype and kopete, however the image is terrible (green screen with some colour-ful dots at the top).
Here is some output that might shed some light on the issue:
This is what I have installed

Which seems to be received well on startup:

However the output at runtime of Kopete might give a hint to the problem:

It's been a while, I haven't used Linux since version 6 or 7, and at that time, Anaconda gave you a choice of which level of SELinux to install - as I remember, I chose the "relaxed" version... but this time, with Version 11, I was not given any choice of which level of SELinux to use. I was automatically forced into a USER (drone) account with no administrative or limited administrative capabilities. I have my administrative name and password I assigned during the Anaconda install...but I don't know how to get into the superuser or root account and execute it so that I have full, unvarnished permission to do as I please on MY machine.
First of all, let me explain - This is MY computer and I can do with it exactly as I want. I am the Aministrator and I am the one and only OWNER of this machine. Therefore, I should have automatic access to SuperUser, and if I corrupt something, that is my fault...and its my machine. Cutting through the bull, I would like someone on here to just plain tell me, without cryptic remarks, to give me a step-by-step - The is a HOW TO to access the superuser account, name and password. And - this is HOW TO create a ROOT account with superuser permissions. What I need is a one-two-three this-is-how-to-do-it.
If I mess things up, I merely reinstall Fedora again and start from scratch. I don't care if I screw things up accidentally. What does irritate me is being forced to have a "drone" account on my machine that I own, without even asking me, what I wanted..

Can a virus survive a reformat, running bootrec /fixmbr (both from the install CD), and then installing Ubuntu? Reformat meaning from the windows disk recovery console, using the format command for all partitions. Likewise, would a virus be capable of surviving just the first two steps alone without installing Ubuntu, just re-installing windows?
If one were to have an MBR virus on Windows or Linux, how abouts would you find or remove it without doing an entire disk wipe? And before someone goes "Linux is immune" take into consideration vulnerabilities on the user end.

I installed Ubuntu 11.04 Desktop and can access the internet through a linksys router with WPA2. I then installed Ubuntu server in the free space left on the disk, but the installation network autoconfiguration failed. I can boot either OS, but the server's DHCP client cannot discover any networks (there are several in the area).

I want to try running Red Alert 2 with 16 bit depth, but I don't know where to change it... All I found is about editing a .conf file in /etc/X11/ or something like that, but I don't have a file like that, if I try to launch gedit through terminal, it's just blank.

I have a video game that in order to run requires a lower bit depth screen. I recall in the past, there was a video control panel, but I apparently don't have that option in the Monitor (gnome-display-properties) config tool.

I've a laptop from 2001 with 512MB of RAM, and I was running Windows XP, and the laptop wasn't coping very well with the huge demands of the applications of today. It was only yesterday I installed Ubuntu alongside XP and I was surprised to see how fast everything was!
The only thing that's bugging me a bit is the screen. Some parts of the desktop shows some banding where there is meant to be a gradient, probably telling me to increase the color depth. Is there a way in Karmic Koala to change the color depth? I tried using sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf but when the editor shows up with the setting file, it's empty.

Basically I've just installed Ubuntu 9.10 on an old Acer Aspire 3000 laptop. When I first did the install I observed that the screen color depth was very low so after browsing the forums I ran the latest updates and then everything was perfect.
However after a restart the color depth reverted back to low. I created an xorg.conf file and set the default depth to 24. However no luck. I then set the color depth to 16 in this file and restarted. This time it switched to the 16 bit color depth, however after a restart again it all reverted back! I tried changing the value again but it is now stuck at the low color depth again.
The driver I am using is the updated SIS driver that was provided from Ubuntu for the onboard 661 SIS video card.

Just installed 32 bit Lenny 5 in virtual box, a software computer, and virtualbox say that it wants the color depth changed from 24 to 32. Tried manually changing xorg.conf but then X would not start saying: 32 depth was inconsistent with 000 weight.

I'm currently trying to find ways to get in-depth knowledge of the Linux OS. To give a brief overview of where I am at right now, I am a computational science graduate student who does all of his work on *nix scientific clusters.I also took a lot of computer engineering and computer science courses in college, as well as being the stereotypical standard computer nerd growing up, so I'm somewhat familiar with computer architecture, though more from the hardware side.So I'm familiar (though I wouldn't claim to be an expert quite yet, by any means) with using Linux and C programming, and I have a basic grasp of generic computer architecture, but what I feel I really lack knowledge in is the specific details of the Linux. All the details of the boot process, exactly what the kernel does, how Linux handles memory management, etc. I'm having difficulty finding any information on this;all I can find is generic information targeted towards people who are just starting out, and the stuff I've found that talks about the kernel seems more oriented towards "you change setting X and Y happens" rather than what the kernel is doing.

I am running Karmic Koala on a Dell Precision M90, and have some problems with my color depth, or at least that's what I believe. I have googled this problem numerous times, reading a lot about /etc/X11/xorg.conf, and have created numerous files in that location, with all manners of (probably) valid contents. I have yet to try invalid contents, in the hope that Linux is reading the file, and doing so would crash the system. This is my current xorg.conf, after many iterations:
Code:
Section "ServerLayout"
Identifier "X.org Configured"
Screen 0 "Screen0" 0 0
InputDevice "Mouse0" "CorePointer"
[code]....
Now, is there some other place to change this? Should I sacrifice more virgins to Cthulhu, or is Hastur the one to ask in these situations?

since I don't have a xorg.conf anymore (just wasn't installed ) I wonder how to change the color depth to 32.
I'm using the standard xserver-xorg-video-radeon driver.

I am trying to create a media server, and I decided to try out Ubuntu, but I'm having trouble figuring this out. I have taken a suggestion that I got from another forum, but it did not work.
I'm using version 10.4 and I have to get it to at least 24 bit so I can run XBMC. I have a friend that works for red hat and he said I needed to find the restricted driver or something, but I can't find it, and he doesn't know where it might be on Ubuntu. So, does anyone know how I can change my color depth to 24bit?

I recently using compiz in 16 bit color depth, and it run pretty smooth. After enabling /etc/X11/xorg.conf and changing/adding Defaultdepth to 24. I can't use compiz again. My goal is to set compiz for 32 bit color depth
