I had mailed about this like a couple of weeks ago, but it doesn't
look like my mail made it to the mailing-list. In any regard, let
me broach the subject again. I grabbed an fvwm snapshot (back in 9/16)
and then again 9/26 and compiled them without a hitch, but the colormap
is all freaky on me (gotta love that description :-) Simply put,
without making any changes to any of my setup files, my emacs and icons
are very different in tone/color. A case in point, the clamp.xpm is
yellowish in color when it should really be brown. If I invoke 'xv'
from the command line and look at clamp.xpm, it looks fine (its brownish).
I don't have any "colormap" commands in my .fvwm2rc file (FWIW).
I'll attach a small example of what I'm talking about. Even the rcalc.xpm
(also noted in the jpg) instead of having a gray edge has a redish one.
I looked at the Changelog to see any mention of 'colormap' and downloaded
a few snapshots in between any mention of that word to see where the
problem started happening for me; here's a summary,
+ snap-20020926: exhibits the same problem (colors look wrong)
+ snap-20020916: exhibits the same problem (colors look wrong)
+ snap-20020904: exhibits the same problem (colors look wrong)
+ snap-20020831: exhibits the same problem (colors look wrong)
+ snap-20020815: exhibits the same problem (colors look wrong)
+ snap-20020810: exhibits problems, different form (more faded)
+ snap-20020805: exhibits problems, faded + FvwmPager is green-puke color
+ snap-20020731: exhibits problems, faded + FvwmPager is green-puke color
+ snap-20020720: exhibits problems, faded + FvwmPager is green-puke color
+ snap-20020715: Works great
+ snap-20020501: Works great
So it might be this change that is causing the problem,
