Hi!

I have a problem running an application under XFree86 4.2.0 (RedHat Linux 7.3). The 
application I want to run can only be used with the X server in PseudoColor mode. It 
tries to allocate some private colors. When I start the X server in PseudoColor, 
almoast all colors are allocated by the X server itself (12 unused of 256 total). Why 
is this ?  Can I prevent the X server from allocating the whole colormap ?

I tried this by running the X server with:

X -ac -noreset

and from another computer (a Solaris machine) I run "xdefmap -q", which sais:

------------------------------
DefaultColormap Summary:
  unused  : 12 entries
  shared   : 244 entries
  private  : 0 entries
  total     : 256 entries
-------------- SNIP ------------

Best regards,
