% with 10 bit precision per color channel (10 bpc / 30 bpp / "Deep color")
% on graphics hardware that supports native 10 bpc framebuffers.

% Under Linux, all AMD graphics cards since at least 2007, NVidia graphics cards
% since 2008, and Intel graphics chips since at least 2010 do support native
% 10 bit framebuffers. Intel graphics chips must use the X11 "intel" video driver
% to output their 10 bit framebuffers with actual 10 bit precision, the alternative
% "modesetting" video driver does not support output with more than 8 bit yet.
% XOrgConfCreator will take care of this Intel quirk when creating a custom xorg.config
% for such 10 bpc setups under Intel.
% Under Linux, AMD graphics cards since at least the year 2007, NVidia graphics

% to output their 10 bit framebuffers with actual 10 bit precision on Ubuntu
% 20.04 LTS or earlier, as old "modesetting" video drivers do not support output
