login on the console and do:

startx -- -depth 16

if that fails, you need to tweak your X setup.

Section "Screen"
        Identifier      "Primary"
        Device          "MatroxG450 Primary"
        Monitor         "PanaSync/Pro P110 Left"
======> DefaultDepth    16 <======================!!!This line doesnt exist
in my XConfig, am I looking in the wrong place? !!!
        SubSection "Display"
                Depth           8
                Modes           "1280x960" "1152x864" "1024x768"
        EndSubSection
--[snip]--

I have all the other modes listed, even 32.

Thanks again,
