Hello everyone, I recently got-rid of Windows and got Xandros, I have a few applications that require 32-bit color. I go into settings but the max is 24 bit color anyway I might be able to fix this issue Question

I don't know for sure, but somebody explained to me one time that what is called 24 bit in Linux and 32 bit in Windows are actually the same thing. Both have 24 bits of color information and 8 bits of luminance (brightness) information. Windows includes the luminance when counting bits, Linux does not. Or so it has been explained to me.
