What I actually wanted to say was :

 Yes my color depth has been 24bit -> now 16
 
 After I fixed that glxinfo told me:
 
 libGL error: failed to open DRM: Operation not permitted
 libGL error: reverting to (slow) indirect rendering
 
 -> permission trouble with /dev/dri/card0

- thinking

- reading /usr/doc/xserver-xfree86/README.DRI.gz

- edit XF85config

 ...  now it works
 
thanks anyway
