@ James<br>I have attached my script to change the screen depth.<br><br>@Tomeu<br>Is there any possiblity of Sugar changing its default depth to 24 in the feature? By what you say it seems like this is a problem with sugar. So is it acceptable for my Activity to change the screen depth so that it runs faster?<br>

</div>Btw, the issue of depth transformations have been known in the Geode<br>
for quite some time. We didn't switched to 24bpp because of the amount<br>
of memory available.<br>
<br>
AFAIR the problem was that Cairo has no 16bit surfaces on which we<br>
could work, so we use 32 (or is it 24?) and those need to be converted<br>
by the X server. I have heard a rumour about someone (OpenMoko?<br>
Maemo?) having invested resources in adding 16bit surfaces to Qt so it<br>
ran properly on their hardware.<br>
<br>
Just found this after some googling:<br>
