After wrestling with the nvidia driver (see the thread entitled "Nvidia MX 4000 card locking up on FC5 as updated"), I now find I can't launch some programs. I get error messages like so: -------------------------------------------------- [ccurley charlesc ~]$ emacs & [1] 4737 [ccurley charlesc ~]$ Undefined color: "black" [1]+ Exit 255 emacs [ccurley charlesc ~]$ xmutt & [1] 4741 [ccurley charlesc ~]$ Warning: Color name "black" is not defined xterm: Cannot allocate color cyan xterm: Cannot allocate color black xterm: Cannot allocate color yellow3 xterm: Cannot allocate color blue2 xterm: Cannot allocate color yellow xterm: Cannot allocate color red3 xterm: Cannot allocate color magenta [1]+ Done xmutt -------------------------------------------------- I can launch the same apps sucessfully over an SSH login. I do not see anything that jumps out at me in the logs or config file. I don't think I've tried to launch a program in X on that machine since that thread, so this may be a continuation.
