Bug Description

Hello,
I have a old game witch is hard coded with 16bit color depth (GTA 2). For this game I must switch the coler depth to 16bit. But if I switch to 16bit, my xserver wont start. In the log file I read this "(EE) fglrx(0): Given depth (16) is not supported by fglrx driver", but is this posible?!
