Changing number of colors of XServer

[Doug Thistlethwaite <doug.t@deltanet.com>]

My XServer is currently configured to sue 256 colors. (8 bits).  I have noticed
that when I start netscape I get messages telling me it can't allocate a larger
color map.  I figured that if I increased the number of colors, this problem
would go away.

How do I change the number of colors on my display?

Thanks,

Doug
