Hello,
I'm getting the following message when I try to use PseudoColor depth
8:
% Unsupported X Windows visual (class: PseudoColor, depth: 8).
Substituting default (class: TrueColor, Depth: 24).
IDL 5.5 is installed on an HP-UX 11.0 machine and I'm logging from a
Blade 100 running solaris 8 to use IDL. The output of xdpyinfo on the
Blade shows that it supports 8 bits color.
Does anyone know what is the problem?
Thank you very much,
Hannah

Is DISPLAY definitely pointing to the Blade's display before starting IDL?
If not IDL is going to try to open the HP display which may not support
PsuedoColor.
