I have also lyx 1.4.3 on the SLES9 machine, this one runs in the same
session flawless.

lyx 1.4.3 is linked against QT3.

Do you know which X setting is affected and how I could check that (or a
term to google for)?
i would search for Depth in your xorg.conf.

Hmmm...I do not yet understand the concept.

On the SLES which runs LyX, there is no XServer. Thus there is no color depth on the machine which runs LyX.

On the client, which is a Debian etch machine and which runs the XServer, I get

 Section "Screen"
        Identifier "Screen0"
        Device     "Card0"
#       Device     "radeon driver"
        Monitor    "Monitor0"
        DefaultDepth    24

i.e. a color depth of 24. That seems to be reasonable, any locally compiled version of LyX does not show and bad colors.

Do I have to tell LyX on the SLES machine that the XServer it is displayed on the etch machine supports 24 bits color depth? How would I do that?

No, you don't have to tell LyX about that. The Xlib code is aware of the properties of the Xservers (Screen) it is connected to.

You may check that with the following command:

% ssh -XC [EMAIL PROTECTED] xdpyinfo

or

% ssh -XC [EMAIL PROTECTED] /usr/X11/bin/xdpyinfo

The output tells you about the default visual and it's depth.
But I would guess that's not the problem.
