I ran into this too; for some reason the xephyr build in 8.10 is profoundly unhappy running at 16 bits on my 24-bit X server. (Any other bit depth runs fine!) I run it at 24 bits instead:

Code:
Xephyr :2 -host-cursor -screen 800x480x24 -dpi 96 -ac -extension Composite
Seems to work just as well. I'd be wary if I was doing anything goofy with color in my app, though.
