Alex,

Since you are using a Sun UltraSparc, your problem with the
colors may primarily be that the window manager is still using
pseudoColor even though your system supports trueColor.

If you copy the file /usr/dt/config/Xservers to
/etc/dt/config (you may have to create a config directory)
and edit the last line to read

:0 Local local_uid@console root /usr/openwin/bin/Xsun :0 -nobanner
-dev /dev/ffb0 defdepth 24

your desktop colors should become trueColor colors. This will
work even if you are still using openwindows. You may have to
reboot for the change to take place.

Paul
