Running Solaris apps on Linux

[Kevin Krieser]

You probably need to change your X configuration to use a screen depth of 8
bit color, where pseudo-colors is used.

For an individual application, you can startup a new X screen if needed.  I
did the following:
export DISPLAY=:1
X -- -depth 8
startkde

then I could change to virtual terminal 8.

  Subject: Running Solaris apps on Linux


  Hi, Folks!


      I know this may be a little off-topic, but I am trying to run some
Solaris apps on a Linux workstation, and the colors are displayed
incorrectle in some of them.

      When I run the same apps from Windows PCs (using a program called
X-Win, to "emulate" an X-Server in Windows), I have to check an option
called "pseudo-colors" so that the colors display correctly.

      Does anybody know where can I configure Linux to fix that? I've
already tried to recompile the kernel and to change some options of XFree86,
but none of these succeeded.

      If anyone has already ran into this problem and could help me, I would
be very grateful.
