Abortion due to colormap Allocation Failure

[Wilfried Goesgens]

I use Debian unstable, XFree 4.0.2, WindowMaker 0.64.0, gdm as login Manager.

This behaviour realy drives me insane! I've figured out the 
following facts:

This is a Problem with my local X-Server. If I start ddd on a remote
machine, the same shit happens. Also wiping out my WMaker Config doesn't
help it, _BUT_ :
If I select GNOME or KDE session on Login, It works.
Also starting a new X-Server with x -ac :1.0 and starting a 
windowmaker using this display works!

What happens: 
I start DDD, the Main-Window pops up, the Splash-Screen pops up,
the Tip of the day pops up and BANG it's gone again.
I tried turning off Splash-Screen and Tip of the Day, same procedure.
Programm window pops up, and zap, off again.

and this is what the terminal-window says:
I'll allso attach the Logfile.

X Error of failed request:  BadColor (invalid Colormap parameter)

X error (invalid Colormap parameter).

Oops!  You have found a bug in DDD.


I've never had problems with other Programs behaving this way...
(gimp, netscape, mozilla, and so on)
But Netscape might be the only other Motif-App I use.
