Previously (http://www.ethereal.com/lists/ethereal-dev/200210/msg00060.html) I mentioned a problem viewing the TCP graphs in Ethereal running on X/windows. The child windows appear, but they are blank. Someone at work figured out that the problem seems to be confined to X servers running with color depth of 8 bits. Changing the color depth to 24 (and sadly reducing resolution) makes the graphs visible.

Any suggestions for making the graphs appear at a depth of 8-bits?
