  I can have more than 3 different colors in two different windows, but
i can't have more than 3 different colors in a particular window (with
X10 or with X11). Does anyone know why?
  Moreover, when I run xchess (with X10 or with X11), it says that "it
can't get color..." and diplays a black and white window. That's
not the only graphic program that can't get color, and they sometime
alter the color of my other windows. Why?
