    What graphic card does this machine have ? (Sorry, I don't have
    a enterprise here ;).

    hwinfo will show you, which values are used by SaX. Search for
    the VGA compatible controller output (run "hwinfo -all +sbus" for
    a short output).
     
    If you show me the output, I can say you if there exists a Linux
    driver with more then 8bits.

Linux is like a Vorlon.  It is incredibly powerful, gives terse,
cryptic answers and has a lot of things going on in the background.
