OK... I'll include my X settings and my molrc.video settings. Are
those what you were looking for?
in KDE I have the Display control center app set to 1024x768 at 30Hz. (I
don't think it's possible to change the color depth from within KDE.)
In Mac OS 9.2.2 I have the Monitors control panel set to 1024x768 at 85Hz
with the depth set to "Millions" (When MOL starts the resolution and
depth are lower.) I believe it was the refresh rate (Hz) in Mac OS
that I tweaked to get everything running smoothly.
I used "dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xfree86" to create the initial
XF86Config-4 file. (The font-related lines have nothing to do with
MOL.)
--------------------------------
$ cat /etc/X11/XF86Config-4
# XF86Config-4 (XFree86 X Window System server configuration file)
#
# This file was generated by dexconf, the Debian X Configuration tool, using
# values from the debconf database.
#
# Edit this file with caution, and see the XF86Config-4 manual page.
# (Type "man XF86Config-4" at the shell prompt.)
#
# This file is automatically updated on xserver-xfree86 package upgrades *only*
# if it has not been modified since the last upgrade of the xserver-xfree86
# package.
#
# If you have edited this file but would like it to be automatically updated
# again, run the following commands as root:
#
# cp /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 /etc/X11/XF86Config-4.custom
# md5sum /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 >/var/lib/xfree86/XF86Config-4.md5sum
# dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xfree86
