Description Benoit Boissinot 2004-12-26 02:52:55 UTC

I have errors related to rgb databse with xorg-x11-6.8.901.
(a lot of Cannot parse color "black", XWin::allocColor() : failed to alloc : wheat, urxvt: can't get colour 'white')

It looks like some programs are searching for the rgb database in /usr/lib/rgb but it is actually located in /usr/lib/X11/rgb.txt. (i get the following errors in xdm : Couldn't open RGB_DB '/usr/lib/rgb').

They seems to be differents definitions of LIBDIR beetween the various definition of DefaultRgbDatabase.

Problem is your xorg.conf has RgbPath incorrect. Check it and update it to /usr/lib/X11/rgb from /usr/lib/rgb.

It worked.
