[gentoo-user] Warning: Color name "black" is not defined

[Alexander Skwar]

Hi!

Since a recent update, I always get error messages like the following,
when I start certain applications (eg. xterm):

Warning: Color name "black" is not defined
xterm: Cannot allocate color red
xterm: Cannot allocate color magenta

On bgo, I found http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=78385 which suggests
to make sure that RgbPath is correct in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.

It is correct, I think:

    RgbPath     "/usr/share/X11/rgb"

[10:09:19 vz6tml@dewup-ww02:~] $ ls -la /usr/share/X11/rgb.txt
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 17371 10. Mai 10:07 /usr/share/X11/rgb.txt

I'm, however, only and always using a VNC session to connect to
the system. I use net-misc/vnc-4.0-r1. Does RealVNC use /etc/X11/xorg.conf?

Any ideas about what might be broken?

Thanks,

Alexander Skwar
