Bug Description
My desktop is what appears to be 16 colours, however the icons and the browser all appear 32 bit high colour. This happened after I was forced to choose to boot into "restore" mode with the latest kernel, for the system would not boot in normal mode with the latest kernel. Using a previous kernel boots up OK, though.
After booting, a manual system update was performed however the following error message was displayed at the end of the update:
"Your system is providing 3D via software rendering rather than hardware rendering.
This is a compatibility mode which should display 3D graphics properly but the
performance may be very poor. If the problem you're reporting is related to graphics
performance, your real question may be why X didn't use hardware acceleration for your system."
