Problems in starting some X-Window Applications
Hi!
I am new to use the last version and have tested quite a view in my
Windows NT. Thanks to all developers for making this X-Server.
I run some X-Window application very well when I use startxwin.bat
to start up X-Server at DOS console, But failed with some messages
as follows with using startx to start X-Server under bash shell.
Ex. 1.
error: can't allocate color cell array
Ex. 2.
No color cells for 3DCAFRAN
If other program run, which uses many color cells,
please terminate those, and you will use 3DCAFRAN
When I use XWin as remote client, the same errors above occurred.
I have obtained some information about XWin's color cell as follows

Sorry for the long email. I just wanted to point things clearly.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.
