Bit 6
In eight bit-per-pixel mode one byte of display buffer represents one pixel on the display.
At this color depth the read-modify-write cycles, required by the lessor pixel depths, are
eliminated.
Each byte of display memory consists of three pointers into the Look-Up Table. The three
most significant bits form an index into the first eight red values. The next three bits are an
index into the first eight green values. The last two bits form an index into the first four blue
Look-Up Table entries.
