Li,
You have:
default visual id: 0x23
visual:
visual id: 0x23
class: TrueColor
depth: 16 planes
available colormap entries: 64 per subfield
red, green, blue masks: 0xf800, 0x7e0, 0x1f
significant bits in color specification: 6 bits
It appears you are running a Xfree86 server, so I'm guessing Linux.
You can configure your depth through the "linuxconfig" script
and select the 8 bit (256 colors) mode.
Also make sure you are not running GNOME. Use KDE, TWM or FVWM.
