Colors messed up in Xwindows


OK, I just got my mouse to work in KDE, I used xorgconfig and that set it up properly. But now, the colors are all messed up. KDE doesn't look right on the screen, and there are very few colors. Mahjong runs OK, but because the colors are all messed up, I can't see the tiles.

Does anyone know the answer to this one??? xorgconfig lets you change your card, but it doesn't say anything about the colors changing. So, I need help on this one. I haven' a clue as to how to fix this.

Colors work OK now

OK, so the colors work OK now. I just took the backup file xorg.conf.bak and used it and it had he right colors in it. I just had to modify it to use my mouse setups, but it works fine now.

Now, I ran a copy of X Eyes just to see what it would do. Then I ran another copy of it. Now I have 2 sets of eyes staring at me in KDE, so how do I stop them??? There is no way to quit running that application, so where does it store that information at??? How do I quit X Eyes????
