>What is the best method of determining if a screen supports color
Why not just look at the default visual....if it is StaticGray and
the default depth is 1 I think you can conclude you have monochrome
and so on..... Planes is not a good test 'cause you may have multi
planes and still be GrayScale or StaticGray....
