- I use xloadimage to load a 256 color image onto the background. But each
- time after doing this, I get the message "Can't allocate color" when
- running other applcations (e.g. xmahjongg, Seyon). Moreover, if I add
- "xloadimage -onroot image.gif" into my .twmrc before "exec twm", I get
- only black and white windows. It appears that xloadimage is holding the
- colors, disallowing others to use them. Can anyone please help?
