I am running IDL v5.1 on HP-UX 10.2 at a screen depth of 8bpp and am
accessing it from a RedHat linux 5.1 box running at a screen depth of
16bpp.
From within IDL I can not output anything do device "x" without
receiving the following error:
% Unsupported X Windows visual (class: StaticGray, depth: 0).
Substituting default (class: <UndefinedVisual>, Depth: 0).
% Execution halted at: $MAIN$
Does anyone have any experience with this error? I am guessing it stems
from the fact that locally I am at 16bpp while the remote machine can
only generate 8bpp. The easy answer would be to operate at 8bpp locally
but this is unacceptable since it will generate problems with other
applications. Is there another work-around?
Thanks for your help!
