/etc/X11/xdm/Xservers contains the list of local servers to be
managed by xdm (unless you changed something). It has the command-lines
which are used to start up the servers. Add the '-bpp 16' to the
command line. For instance, in my /etc/X11/xdm/Xservers, I have a line:
:0 DEC-P90 local /usr/X11R6/bin/XF86_S3 :0
Which would change to
:0 DEC-P90 local /usr/X11R6/bin/XF86_S3 :0 -bpp 16
to have 16 bits-per-pixel.
Yes, my friend, had you Read The Fine xdm Manpage you would have easily
discovered the answer.
