I am trying to display on my Mac at home a colour graphic produced under PV-WAVE on my SGI Unix machine at work. The program runs in Pseudo colour depth 8, and displays perfectly when run and displayed on my Unix machine. However, when I use ssh to access my Unix box from my Mac using X11 under Tiger, the following message appears

 Unsupported X Windows Visual Class: PseudoColor, Depth=8.

However, xdpyinfo on the Mac gives
supported pixmap formats:
    depth 1, bits_per_pixel 1, scanline_pad 32
    depth 4, bits_per_pixel 8, scanline_pad 32
    depth 8, bits_per_pixel 8, scanline_pad 32
    depth 15, bits_per_pixel 16, scanline_pad 32
    depth 16, bits_per_pixel 16, scanline_pad 32
    depth 24, bits_per_pixel 32, scanline_pad 32
    depth 32, bits_per_pixel 32, scanline_pad 32

This suggests that X11 (Tiger) can operate in depth 8.
Can anyone offer help, please?
