Nope, still didn't work.

The problem is, X will only work in 8bit color depth, and when you exit
from that X session, X freezes and I have to SSH in from another computer
to reboot the Mac. When I try 16 or 24bit color depth, I get the top 1/3rd
of the screen is black, then 4 inches in on the left is solid green, and
the remainder of the screen is pulsing green/red/yellow.
