Certainly does... thanks for your help. I discovered that moving up to
IDL v6.0 (for some reason I was still on 5.4) and saying "device,decomposed=0"
(thanks David) solved all my problems. Now I can plot pictures faster
than I could at work! Though sadly the physical screen is smaller.

BTW, there is a nice page about tunnelling through firewalls with
VNC/putty at: http://people.hmdc.harvard.edu/~mathpre/vnc/putty/
which is nice for windows folk such as me at home.
