Update of bug #12478 (project gnustep):

Follow-up Comment #4:

As you found out yourself, the art backend doesn't work with 8 bit, but xlib
and cairo will. I will close this bug as there is a suitable workaround.

Perhaps I will look into this a bit later, as I noticed I get the same
problem when running a GNUstep application with my monitor in the fallback
mode. We really need a better error message for the user.
