The Sony VAIO PCG-F540 has a video card from NeoMagic (MagicMedia
256AV+) that seems to be fully supported by Ubuntu 13.10:

if the display works fine on 12.04 live CD without any additional
parameter then you probably need to open a bug report against
xserver-xorg-video-neomagic. I had a look to Launchpad and the bugs I
found are listed here:

But I didn't see nothing about wrong colors, just banding issues due
to the lack of dithering on drivers.
And Aere, did you try with a Lubuntu 12.04 live CD to see if the color
are right? As far as I remember LXLE is focused to strongly support
old chipsets too. Perhaps they are using some additional settings or
different drivers.
Let us know.
I submitted a bug-report from that machine. Here is the link to it, if
it affects any of you:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1251384
Since this machine has a maximum memory capacity of 256 megabytes, and
has a speed of only 500 megahertz, I'm doubtful very many people are
encountering the problem.
Thanks for the information about that graphics chip-set being supported.
