This is because it doesn't have any driver that supports the
emulated hardware, so it just switches to 16 color VGA and draws
from an 8bit framebuffer to the VGA bank with a grey palette.
I thought the Cirrus card could be supported but it probably doesn't
emulate a matching chip.
It might be possible to try extra drivers from http://bebits.com/browse/23
though it'd be better to have a working setup from the official image.
Later versions and Haiku use VESA though, so are unaffected and
should work with -vga std.
Hmm, I have BeOS 5 PE working with qemu -hda ... (i.e., default VGA
options).
And I'm pretty sure I didn't install special drivers.
