X Window applications can install what is called a private color map if the number of colors available from the X server is insufficient. You probably have a color depth of 8 bits set up. To change this, open /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 and find 'Section "Screen"'. Insert 'DefaultDepth 16' after the line 'Monitor "whatever"', then restart the X server. That will give you 2^16 colors, eliminating the need for private color maps. Valid values for default depth depend on your server.
