I made this patch years ago to get marbles to work on an old laptop.
I guess it should get into the upstream source...
I have tested it myself. You can get an 8bit colour display by running
startx /usr/bin/fluxbox -- :1 -depth 8
(If you use KDE, you probably don't want to start another whole KDE
session...)
