Hmm ... well on my fresh 9.10 install I *do* have an xorg.conf, which reads:
Section "Screen"
Identifier "Default Screen"
DefaultDepth 24
EndSection
Section "Module"
Load "glx"
EndSection
Section "Device"
Identifier "Default Device"
Driver "fglrx"
EndSection
As you can see, it contains only a few things -- maybe it's just because I
have a proprietary driver? I really don't know, but if all you want is to
change the depth from 24 -> 16, I would try creating an xorg.conf that
contains *only* the lines
Section "Screen"
Identifier "Default Screen"
DefaultDepth 16
EndSection
