Only 8-bit color depth?

Howdy --

I'm running MOL 0.9.70 on a 12" aluminum Powerbook
(nVidia graphics),
and when I run MOL in console mode, it decides that it can
only use an
8-bit color depth. On startup, output includes:

===
Video driver(s): [console_video] 

    1024* 768, depth 8   { 0.0, 60.0, 70.0, 75.0 } Hz

No video mode match the default one.
===

Relevant section of MOL config is:

===

enable_console_video:   yes
vt:                     9
start_on_console:       yes             # switch to console
initially
autoswitch_console:     yes             # allow automatic
switching to console

===

And my fb.modes generated by molvconfig:

Any idea how I can get it to use 24 bit color depth like my
X session?
Thanks!
