24-bit color support to Xvnc

[paresh masani]

Hey James,

Thaks you were right my vncviewer was running at 16-bpp. now i set it to 32
bits. And  ""vncserver -depth 24" showing the correct info but "vncserver
-depth 32" not. I think it should work for 32 bit also right?

Please refer the attached images.

Thanks,
Paresh
