See reader questions & answers on this topic! - Help others by sharing your knowledge windows. Date: 07 May 1993 00:00:01 EST This is known as colormap flashing. It is caused by the server maintaining 2 separate colormaps, one for GL windows and one for X windows. As the cursor moves around, the window manager will install the correct colormap for each window. This will cause colors to be wrong in other windows. For more information on colormaps and installation please see the Xlib Programming manual, chapter 7 (Vol I of the O'Reilly series). You can sometimes avoid colormap flashing by configuring your X Server to use a 12-bit or 24-bit visual by default.
