I'm trying to connect to a server and set up a X Windows kind of thing, http://www.engr.uky.edu/~elias/Tutorial_S07/ssh_connection.htm but I get this error message: "ERROR Failed to find either 24-bit TrueColor or 8-bit PseudoColor Visual" Whe I go to Control Panel--> Display --> Settings --> Color Quality, I only see two options: 1) Highest (32-bit) and 2) Medium (16-bit). I don't see an option for 24-bit or "millions of colors", etc. Any ideas?
