I believe that my case is identical to the original message of the list and
24-bit is required.
The problematic visual (the one which is not provided by the external
X-server) is the following (I cite an extract from xdpyinfo on the original
system):
* visual:*
* visual id: 0x36*
* class: PseudoColor*
* depth: 4 planes*
* available colormap entries: 16*
* red, green, blue masks: 0x0, 0x0, 0x0*
* significant bits in color specification: 4 bits*
At another part of xdpyinfo, I also get the following info:
*screen #0:*
* dimensions: 1280x1024 pixels (342x274 millimeters)*
* resolution: 95x95 dots per inch*
* depths (4): 8, 12, 24, 4*
Please forgive my technical ineptitude, in case I did not answer your
question, but I am not experienced in this domain.

Sorry for undiggind this subject so many years
later, but have you found
a
solution to your problem? I am facing exactly the
same issue, and i have
tried all possible windows X server options without success. The only
possibility I am working with is with a Mac OS X server, which reports a
5-bit visual.
What bit-depth do you require on the X-server?
