I figured this out once long ago, but can't remeber how to do it again. I
am running CDE on a V4.0f Tru64 box with an 8 meg framebuffer. It is
currently set to at
1280x1024 and 8 bit color, how do I set it to 24 bit color?

It looks like its a supported mode from the output from xdpyinfo, I can't
find this info in any of the documentation.

I seem to remeber having to edit the /etc/dt/config/X??? file...

Any pointers?
Thanks, will SUM
