Since i upgraded from video-i810 to video-intel, X obviously runs in 16 Bit ColourDepth. When using video-i810, without changing anything in xorg.conf except specifying the driver, TrueColour is back (but I get hard freezes using video-i810). The Graphic Card is an i830.
Strangely (from how I read the log files) X is indeed convinced to run in TrueColour. I attached some relevant files below.
I really hit a wall with this and would be very happy if someone could come up with an idea about what could be going wrong here!

edit: by "obviously 16 bit" i mean that in all applications, bars are clearly visible instead of color gradients.
