assume the same colordepth imo. I'm not sure its a good idea to support having
multiple colordepths going at the same time. To even have that supported at
the hardware level is becoming rare (X is moving away from that, soon the
only way that'll work is with separate X connections, XRandR does away with
having different DISPLAYs for each screen, instead its one display, one
framebuffer, and multiple views into it).
