color X server(Xcfb) for DECstation uses up 128 colors

[Frank A. Lonigro]

Hi:
	I've been trying to get connected to the QAR system for 2 days now
and can't seem to get threw, so I'm reporting the bug here.

	I just upgraded my DECstation3100 from field test 1 to field test 2
of Ultrix 4.0.  I installed the manditory patches after that and rebuilt the
kernel and all of that sort of stuff.  I reboot and then log in.  I run a
program called "xcmap" which displays my color map of already used up colors,
which to my surprise, I find that I have used up 128 colors, when in fact I
should only be using up 2 or 3(black, white and/or gray).  I then thought of
bringing back the previous version of Xcfb, which by the way worked properly
before in field test 1, but when I installed and used that instead, I had
the same problem.  So, if it isn't the Xcfb that is using up the colors, what
is????  I'm using the same .Xdefaults file I always used.

	This is very very bad!!!  I now have to backup to a previous release
of Ultrix, unless another solution is found very soon.

Thanks for listening,
