One thing I do note is that you're using this to check root's mail. I hope you're not always logged in as root. It's better to create an account for yourself and then su to root to do those things that require root.

The pixmaps are 8 bit pixmaps .... you'd have to go through and manually make them a lower number of colors but I don't think that's the problem here. If you do an ls as shown below on your machine you should get the same results. If you don't, something has gone wrong in the package installation. peloton: {11} ls /usr/X11R6/include/X11/pixmaps/e*.xpm /usr/X11R6/include/X11/pixmaps/e-no.xpm /usr/X11R6/include/X11/pixmaps/e4.xpm /usr/X11R6/include/X11/pixmaps/e0.xpm /usr/X11R6/include/X11/pixmaps/e5.xpm /usr/X11R6/include/X11/pixmaps/e1.xpm /usr/X11R6/include/X11/pixmaps/e6.xpm /usr/X11R6/include/X11/pixmaps/e10.xpm /usr/X11R6/include/X11/pixmaps/e7.xpm /usr/X11R6/include/X11/pixmaps/e11.xpm /usr/X11R6/include/X11/pixmaps/e8.xpm /usr/X11R6/include/X11/pixmaps/e2.xpm /usr/X11R6/include/X11/pixmaps/e9.xpm /usr/X11R6/include/X11/pixmaps/e3.xpm Can you tell me if you have these files? If you don't have them then the wharf will just have a big blank spot there (although it should start).
