I noticed that if uib is having problems with the colormap it streams warning messages to stderr first, then it seems that you guys redirect stderr to the footer of uib and the "cannot get color blah...blah..." messages get blasted to the uib footer. Of course uib resizes to fit the text and I get the "Oprah Winfrey Effect"... uib expands and contracts in an seemingly endless loop. Is there anything I can do to StopTheMadness(tm)? Frank - yeah... I know about the "get a 24-bit frame buffer" solution already... ;)
