Subject: 3.16, i915: less colors in X?

Hi!

I just test-booted 3.16-rc1, and background in X looked just wrong --
very noticeable bands on the background gradient. I thought that maybe
it is just my eyes, but I went back to older kernel, and background is
ok now.

I'm trying to figure out how to ask X what color depth it is using...?

This is thinkpad x60 with Debian 6.0.9.

Any ideas?
