Viewing 8bit and 24 bits apps on an Ultra 60 (Creator3D)

Hi folks,
is there any way to configure a Creator3D card (on an Ultra 60 - Sol7) to
be able to
display 8 bit and 24 bits apps at the same time.

At the moment the defdepth is set to 24 in the /etc/dtc/config/Xservers
file.
If I then try and run an 8bit app (e.g. /usr/openwin/bin/xcolor) it doesn't
work as it expects
an 8bit display.

I have read that the Creator3D can do both 8 and 24 bit simultaneously.

Many thanks for any help
