My U5 (which has a 400 MHz UltraSPARC IIi) is 24-bit capable.  I used to
have a 1024x768x16 setting with Xorg 6.9.  Here is the output of
`lspci':

  01:02.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc 3D Rage Pro 215GP (rev 5c) (prog-if 00 [VGA])
          Flags: bus master, stepping, medium devsel, latency 64, IRQ 7409760
