In pcs.freebsd.questions you write: >I've compiled fvwm using current ports and it work fine except for the >colormaps. The errror messages are as follows: > >"unable to allocate color somecolor" >"can't allocate colormap entry for somecolor" What kind of X server are you using in what color depth? If it's the VGA 16 one, you may well be out of colors. >I suspect it's releated to libXpm. I have these lib files in 2 >places because I believe fvwm is looking for them in /usr/lib/X11. >I normally keep them in /usr/X11R6/lib. I've recompiled over and over >again and I can't get the colormaps right. Am I on the right track >or way off in wonder-land? I'd appreciate someone's help. Unless I've made yet another mistake, fvwm should look up everything under /usr/X11R6/lib. Personally, I keep a symbolic link from /usr/X11R6/lib to /usr/lib/X11 for backwards compatibility tho.
