This might lead you to a solution:

Edit /etc/X11/gdm/gdm.conf, in the [server-Chooser] section (at the
bottom) change to "flexible=true". 
Then create a new XServer config for the chooser such as (customize to
needs): 
[server-8BitColor]
name=Legacy-Apps Server
command=/usr/X11R6/bin/X -audit 0 -depth 8 -display=:10 
flexible=true

Save and then run gdmflexiserver and it'll pop up a chooser dialog where
you can select your "server-8BitColor" X Server.
