[plug] Acrobat PDF files and X11

[Michael Hunt]

A 256k colour depth will cause this problem. You see it all the time on
windows machines.

Rerun the appropriate Xconfig tool and try for another colour depth. I'll
think you'll find the problem will then go away.

sounds like you were running out of colours, what colour depth is your
xserver running in?

either your settings or your video card or both, monitors dont really care
how many colours are on them, its not their job :)

my suggestion anyhow,
