It would seem so, but it is the right information. I double checked
that it is right by booting without the video kernel parameter and

Okay, so I think your original problem is because the Xorg fbdev driver
uses the colour depth from console by default, and I guess the login
manager you're using can't deal with that.

To clarify, I mean it can't deal with depth 8 pseudo-colour.
