Isn't this because recent video hardware doesn't support 32K

yes .. on fx5200 etc, 32k colourmode has the r and g NOT swapped ..
too much software load for a basically obsolete display mode..

So maybe it's time to remove this option from the Display Manager ???
Please *don't* do that. I use a 32k colour mode rather a lot because I find Oregano2 remains usable for much longer than in a 16M mode. At a guess it's because the cached images are smaller.
Also, 32k colour mode is ONLY mis represented for machines with the more modern FX5200 based graphics. The majority of machines still have the older geforce2 cards..
