        After a change of the VGA adapter (below), and now a switch to
        Wheezy, I’ve found that the issue still exists, for /both/
        -depth 24 and -depth 16.

        Specifically, darker shades of gray (e. g., #201b1a, #332b29)
        seem to turn into bright green and yellow (respectively) with
        -depth 16, after VTs have been switched.

        Surprisingly, however, I’ve just seen the issue appearing right
        after the X server is started with -depth 24, and was /fixed/ as
        soon the VTs were switched.

        Any ideas on what might’ve going wrong here?

        TIA.
