I think the problem is the many visuals your x-server can use. I'm not
terribly good at X visual and color handling (almost nobody is, it's
incredibly complex...).
The problem is basically this: (from lib/color.c)
void
color_init(void)
{
GdkVisual *visual = gtk_widget_get_default_visual();
GdkColormap *colormap = gtk_widget_get_default_colormap();
color_context = gdk_color_context_new(visual, colormap);
color_convert(&color_black, &color_gdk_black);
color_convert(&color_white, &color_gdk_white);
}
This probably selects the wrong visual and/or colormap for you.
This (in lib/dia_image.c) could also be what leads to this problem:
void
dia_image_init(void)
{
gdk_imlib_init();
/* FIXME: Is this a good idea? */
gtk_widget_push_visual(gdk_imlib_get_visual());
gtk_widget_push_colormap(gdk_imlib_get_colormap());
}
Could you try commenting out the two lines:
gtk_widget_push_visual(gdk_imlib_get_visual());
gtk_widget_push_colormap(gdk_imlib_get_colormap());
in lib/dia_image.c in dia_image_init.
The report to me what happens.
It's rather hard to debug this stuff for me since i don't have access to
such strange X-displays.
