I am using IDL with OpenLook, but I've seen the same behavior. The fix is to
call the routine "clear_colormap" immediately after exiting from X-windows. I
ensure this by running X-windows from inside a shell script with the following
line being "clear_colormap", i.e.

#!/usr/bin/csh
setenv IDL_DEVICE x
setenv OPENWINHOME /usr/openwin
$OPENWINHOME/bin/openwin -noauth $*
clear_colormap
