There was a recent bug report on this. I think the cause was that you did not update *all* xfree packages to xorg. Check if you have any xfree86 packages left and update them to their xorg counterpart. Do you have any *color files in /etc/X11/app-defaults ? Greetings Helge -- Dr. Helge Kreutzmann, Dipl.-Phys.
