x11 and IDL display device.

Hi all

I've installed x11 on my machine and I'm using it to run IDL remotely on a sun. I run into an interesting problem: to display images, IDL connects to the XWindow server of apple x11 but apparently none of the configurations that IDL expects are accepted by the server.

Indeed the visual depth is extremely strange (at 15 bits) where the values normally encountered are typically 8 bits (for pseudo-color display) and 24 bits (for true color display).

I did not have this problem with XDarwin which was by default a 24 bits display.

The net result is that you cannot view images with IDL...

Anyone experiencing the same problem?

	thanks

		Marc.
