Hi,

starting
dkraft@newton/home/dkraft> xterm
I get
Warning: Color name "black" is not defined

dkraft@newton/home/dkraft> ll /usr/share/X11/rgb.txt
is present

How can I activate the colors?

Maybe someone has managed to delete the black entry in the rgb.txt, then add it manually, you can check this easily with: grep black /usr/share/X11/rgb.txt

Another possibility is that your X is configured to look for the file in another place, see to that you have
RgbPath "/usr/share/X11/rgb"


//Aho
Thanks, but this didn't help
I tried many
export RgbPath="/usr/share/X11/rgb"
export RGBPATH="/usr/share/X11"
etc. etc.

and always got

dkraft@newton/home/dkraft> export RgbPath="/usr/share/X11"
dkraft@newton/home/dkraft> /usr/local/maple/bin/maple -cw
Warning: Color name "gray" is not defined
Warning: Color name "black" is not defined
Warning: Color name "LightSeaGreen" is not defined
Warning: Color name "lightgray" is not defined

all colors are defined in rgb.txt
