R help - Jan 1999 - color allocation problem

Hi,

I have recently installed R in my Linux(Red Hat 5.1) box without any
problems. At the time I run some plots or demos,
like the "demo(image)" I get the following error:
"Error: color allocation error" 
Do you what's going wrong with the colors?

Best,
Georgios.

This is an X problem, and only indirectly related to R. It seems that
applications you started before R have used all the available
colors. How many colors are available depends on your X configuration,
probably you have it only configured to use 256 colors.

Netscape is known to be rather memory-intensive ... if you have
netscape running try to start it with the -no-install option, then it
shouldn't install it's own color map.

Hope this helps,
Fritz
