Using DirectColor in VisualName in xorg.conf gives darkbackground.
Hello ,

In our application , we have some dynamic bit change which is indicated in picture as flashing.

In the old alpha-servers , it was achieved by psuedocolor at depth 8 .

In the new HP-Linux(RHEL4) , psuedocolor is giving xpm - color fail error.

But flashing was achieved , by changing the visual-name in xorg.conf to DirectColor in HP-Linux(RHEL4) , but the desktop turns to be dark. We can somehow only open the xterm and run the application.

Pls advice !!!!!!

pcp

PCP(9.1)																  PCP(9.1)

NAME

       pcp - copy pictures

SYNOPSIS

       fb/pcp [ -wx0 y0 x1 y1 ] [ -ox y ] [ -ttype ] [ -cchannels ] [ -Cchannels ] [ -mcolormap ] [ -M ] [ input [ output ] ]

DESCRIPTION

       Pcp  copies  the  input	picture (default standard input) to the output file (default standard output).	Options control the attributes and
       content of the output picture.

       -w x0 y0 x1 y1
	      causes only the given window of the input picture to be copied.  By default the whole picture is copied.

       -o x y causes the output picture's WINDOW= attribute to be translated by adding (x,y) to the input window coordinates.

       -t type
	      sets the TYPE= attribute of the output file.  The default is to use the input file's type.

       -c channels
	      causes only the given channels of the input picture to be copied.  The default is to copy all channels.  If channels not present	in
	      the  input  picture  are specified, they are computed in the ``most plausible'' way.  For example, a missing alpha channel is set to
	      255, and an m channel will be synthesized from rgb channels by computing NTSC luminance.	A 0 in channels causes a zero  channel	to
	      be written.

       -C channels
	      sets the output CHAN= attribute.	Channels must be the same length as the selected channels of the input picture.

       -m colormap
	      attaches the given color map to the output.

       -M     elides the color map from the output.
