Bill, I found the rgb.txt file on the system. But in YDL 5 it is located in /usr/share/X11 not as you suggested. The file comes from the package xorg-x11-server-utils-1.0.1-1.2. Maybe the color definition comes from another file or maybe xemacs is not configured correctly to find the file? Thanks for your suggestions.
