From Liam Gumley's fantastic book

; The following configuration was lifted from
; Liam Gumley's book, "Practical IDL Programming" p. 204 for color management

device, true=24
window, /free, /pixmap, colors=-10
wdelete, !d.window
device, retain=2, decomposed=0, set_character_size=[10,12]
device, get_visual_depth = depth
print, 'display depth: ', depth
print, 'color table size: ', !d.table_size
;print, 'must buy Liam's Book'
;print, ' http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/1558607005/qid =1037979515/sr=8-1/ref=sr_8_1/102-2113620-1610518?v=glance&a mp;s=books'

Putting this in your startup.pro file may help you. Also, there is a linux
IDL5.5 color bug. If you are seeing striping in your windows, you probably
need to go to RSI's homepage and download the patch.

Hope this helps you.
