Title: Possible to activate 24/32 bit color support in Lubuntu?

Is it possible to increase the color to 24 or 32 bit in Lubuntu.

I read somewhere some time ago, you need to compile a new kernel.

Any help or link to the post would be appreciated.

I fixed my own problem, so no need for anyone to reply by following Radxa wiki pages.

Unfortunately it only give me a black screen after following the Radxa wiki page.

I think the problem is because there is no framebuffer driver.

Maybe someone else can also test the solution and see if it works for them.

Hi dewet

you can do as followings

cat << EOF > /etc/init/fbset.conf
# fbset - run fbset to set truecolor fbmo
dedescription "run fbset ASAP"
start on startup and started udev or starting lightdm
task
script
[ -x /bin/fbset ] && /bin/fbset -a -nonstd 1 -depth 32 -rgba "8/0,8/8,8/16,8/24"
end script
EOF

Copy the code

cat << EOF > /etc/X11/xorg.conf
Section "Screen"
Identifier "Default Screen"
DefaultDepth 24
EndSection
EOF

Copy the code

then you should Add the following to /etc/rc.local

service lightdm stop
fbset -a -nonstd 1 -depth 32 -rgba 8/0,8/8,8/16,8/24
service lightdm start

Copy the code
