Perhaps /usr/lib/X11/rgb.txt is it. There's a (masked) ebuild |
| 21 |
x11-apps/rgb. My xorg.conf has: |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
RgbPath "/usr/lib/X11/rgb" |
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
Alas, /usr/lib/X11/rgb doesn't exist here. The man page of "showrgb" |
| 26 |
talks about a /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/rgb file, which doesn't exist here, |
| 27 |
neither. |
| 28 |
|
| 29 |
strace -eopen showrgb |
| 30 |
|
| 31 |
shows that it reads /usr/lib/X11/rgb.txt directly. Hmm. |

Perhaps it's easier to fix the application that fails to take hex color |
| 36 |
codes? |
