A couple of things to try:

(1) How many colors does the startup file report, just after you start
IDL?

(2) On Sun boxes which use the CDE desktop, the default 'Colors' setting
may not allow IDL to allocate enough colors. On the CDE taskbar, click
on the icon which shows a color palette. Then select 'Colors', 'Number
of Colors', 'Most Colors for Applications'. I think you'll need to
logout and log back in for the changes to take effect.

Does this make any difference?
