For some reason, I've installed Fedora Core 1 on my PC.

After Installation, when to boot Fedora Core 1, 
there raised error for X11 server:
[EE] I810(0): No Video BISO modes for chosen depth
...

After reconfig, the X11 server run. But my desktop
can only display 8-bits color at 1024*768 resolution or
16-bits color at 640*480 resolution.

I just wanna use 16-bits color at 1024*768 resolution,
how to config it?

At the end of this mail's body there is my "XF86Config" file:

Thanks and Best reguard!

# Multiple FontPath entries are allowed (they are concatenated together)
# By default, Red Hat 6.0 and later now use a font server independent of
# the X server to render fonts.

# Specify which keyboard LEDs can be user-controlled (eg, with xset(1))

# To disable the XKEYBOARD extension, uncomment XkbDisable.
# Option "XkbDisable"

# To customise the XKB settings to suit your keyboard, modify the
# lines below (which are the defaults).  For example, for a non-U.S.
# keyboard, you will probably want to use:
# Option "XkbModel" "pc102"
# If you have a US Microsoft Natural keyboard, you can use:
# Option "XkbModel" "microsoft"
#
# Then to change the language, change the Layout setting.
# For example, a german layout can be obtained with:
# Option "XkbLayout" "de"
# or:
# Option "XkbLayout" "de"
# Option "XkbVariant" "nodeadkeys"
#
# If you'd like to switch the positions of your capslock and
# control keys, use:
# Option "XkbOptions" "ctrl:swapcaps"
# Or if you just want both to be control, use:
# Option "XkbOptions" "ctrl:nocaps"
