VNC viewer screen colors are off
 
Hello. I'm running a VNC server along with a local VNC viewer on the same RHEL5 box. The colors for my GUI components look O.K. in the VNC viewer, but a map that the viewer displays is messed up. The color of the map is too blue. My system is using X11 protocol. I'm a newbie when it comes to Linux. Any help you could offer is appreciated.

if i not mistake , you are using 8 bit color
increase it to 16 will solve your problem

Thanks for your response!

My command line for launching the VNC viewer includes the following : -depth 16 -truecolour -xrm *nColours: 200
My command line for launching the Xvnc server includes the following : -depth 16 RBG565 -co /usr/share/X11/rgb

I don't know what more to do to specify 16 bits versus 8 bits. Is there a config file that needs to change?
