I just realized I omitted an important piece of information.

I tried "-cc 3" per the VNC FAQ.  What happens is really weird.  The
application seems to run as a monochrome negative.  Consistently.  Until I
exit the application.  Then, for a couple of seconds before it disappears
from the screen, the colors are EXACTLY RIGHT.  Tantalizing, and
frustrating.  Why does it look right just at the end, and how can I make it
look right all the time?

This behaviour occurs with both AT&T and Tightvnc, at both ends.

Again, thanks for any and all help.
