Bug Description
LTSP defaults to using 16bit graphic to reduce the required bandwidth when running a desktop environment over the network.
Users are used to seeing slightly wrong colors and imperfect gradients, but currently running unity over llvmpipe, we're getting a completely unusable desktop.
I'm attaching a screenshot of a VM booting LTSP and opening a unity session on an X server configured to use 16bit mode.
