I have tried it with Depth 16, 24 and 32 in /etc/xorg.conf and /boot/msdos/config.txt.
The colors are still strange.

Section "Device"
    Identifier  "Generic FB"
    Driver      "scfb"
EndSection

Section "Screen"
    Identifier  "Screen"
    Device      "Generic FB"
    Monitor     "Monitor"
    SubSection "Display"
       Depth            16 #24 #32
    EndSubsection
EndSection

config.txt:
framebuffer_depth=16
disable_commandline_tags=1
gpu_mem=64
device_tree=rpi.dtb
device_tree_address=0x100
kernel=uboot.img
