Hi Xworld,
 
 I am running Motif 1.0 on a 386 box (ESIX SysV R3.2) under X11R3.

 Here is what happens.

 If I run my application without mwm  (the motif window manager), the 
 application can find ALL the colors requested (green red and blue)
 However, If I start mwm ***before*** I start my application,  suddenly
 I start getting warning messages that green and red cannot be found!! 
 
 Now, If I start mwm ***after**  I start my application, every thing is 
 still fine!!
 Whats going on here? Why is mwm robbing me of my colors?
 Please E-mail!
