Anybody any good at X-visuals?
I suppose the problem is all those possible visuals... It probably selects
the wrong when doing color conversion somehow.

I'll look into it myself when i find the time, but if anyone has any tips
it would be appreciated.

No, all I get is black and some reddish colors. I send a screenshot so you
get
the picture. I created two images, changed the background selection to green
and created a box and a note (only the edge markers are visible).

It's in the attachments. I'm also using Netscape 4.51 and KDE 1.0 but the
problem exists even in a session where I didn't start these programs.
