X color problem
Hello everyone, after gettind Debian and X working on my old iMac rev B I've run into a silly problem in X. It doesn't know about colors, I'm being told that "color name is not defined", apparently. Here's what I get: wmaker warning: could not get color for key "ClipTitleColor" wmaker warning: using default "black" instead wmaker warning: could not parse color "black" Warning: Color name "grey50" is not defined Warning: Color name "white" is not defined And: Couldn't open RGB_DB '/usr/X11R6.4/lib/X11/rgb' even after I copied it there. Seems I'm missing something that should be fairly obvious here but searching the list proved no help in this case. A pointer would be greatly appreciated, I cannot get white on black xterms to work, they're all black on white and it's hurting my eyes! On an aside I get a yellow outline around all my windows, presumedly that has something to do with it. I installed the XFree debs from people.debian.org/branden btw, since X wouldn't work out of the box. TIA very much! -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Does /etc/X11/X point to the > correct server? Or do you set the ModulePath in /etc/X11/XF86Config-4? /etc/X11/X -> /usr/bin/X11/XFree86* There is no ModulePath anywhere in my XF86Config. I have no XF86Config-4 incidentally. Sorry, I'm stale, haven't fiddled with Debian since 1998 so some things seem to have changed drastically since then. For what it's worth, here's my XF86Config.
