From the man page for rdekstop 1.3.1:
-a <bpp>
Sets the colour depth for the connection (8, 15, 16 or 24).
More than 8 bpp are only supported when connecting to Windows XP
(up to 16 bpp) or newer. Note that the colour depth may also be
limited by the server configuration.
I just checked a RH9 machine that has the same base version of rdesktop
as released Fedora Core 1 (1.2.0) and it doesn't have the option.
Update your rdesktop from errata and you should be set.
Hope that helps,
