Perhaps someone else on debian-user could share their experiences with this person? The only thing I can think of that is that whatever you're doing in 16bpp puts more demands on the host processor than 8bpp mode. This is definitely going to be true in situations where the host CPU does a lot of "blitting" to the framebuffer "by hand". This might happen in 2D games, for instance, where there are a lot of refresh events. Other than that, I really have no idea. There is currently no defined standard for interfacing a sound server of any sort with the X server. (There probably should be, but life is short and art is long.) -- G.
