Are you attempting to get the grass monitor to user 24-bit color, or do 
you need to get your 24-bit monitor to display 8-bit graphics?  I haven't 
looked at the grass monitor code much, but if you need to do the latter, you
might need to change the program's visual, if the program doesn't do this 
already.
