Thanks Renato, now the error makes more sense.
Ah I was wrong, it's not the average, but the root transparency :)
Since you have no root pixmap, it makes no sense to have it active.
I could only find 2 problems.. Please remove the transparency and tint
options and see if it solves it.
Changed 2 and 3 to this, which makes them redundant, but I still get the
error message three times.
Colorset 2 fg black, bg grey, NoShape, Plain, NoShape
Colorset 3 fg black, bg grey, NoShape, Plain, NoShape
