I recalled François Gouget's VNC work from October and found the message
where he described how to use it to test various combinations:

I'm now saying that this will work in 1, 4 or 8 bit configurations, but
it's worth a try. It might also be worthwhile to make sure your code
works with several '-pixelformat's to test compatibility.
