| No, 4-plane machines have Pseudo-Color colormaps.
It sounds like you have run out of color cells because other applications are
already using all of the cells. Remember, that you only have 16 colors for the
whole screen. If you really need to allocate colors, you must either cut back
on the color usage elsewhere or have your application create its own colormap
if it can't get colors.

| If you are using motif then you will start with the map full and as of
yet I have found no way around this.

| If you want to reduce colormap usage in mwm, then you should turn off
makeColors and you should use topShadowPixmap and bottomShadowPixmap instead
of topShadowColor and bottomShadowColor. These will greatly reduce the number
of colors used by mwm. You can then do similar customizations all around for
applications. If you work hard at it, you should be able to get color usage
down to 2 colors.

| I used the Black & White defination (and no extra applications run) which is
as you stated and the color map was still full.
