I think the issue is not whether PS can be decomposed, it is simply
whether device can inform the state, with get_decomposed. As I
remember, this was added in 7.something. I checked in my old 7.1.1 and
it works:

IDL> print,!version
{ x86_64 linux unix linux 7.1.1 Aug 21 2009 64 64}
IDL> set_plot, 'ps'
IDL> device, decomposed=1
IDL> device, get_decomposed=state
IDL> help,state
STATE LONG = 1
IDL> device, decomposed=0
IDL> device, get_decomposed=state
IDL> help,state
STATE LONG = 0

I do not have any older versions to test.
