I am using a python package that gives the following error:
X Error of failed request: BadValue (integer parameter out of range for
operation)
Major opcode of failed request: 91 (X_QueryColors)
Value in failed request: 0xff000000
Serial number of failed request: 1925
Current serial number in output stream: 1925

The same program gives no problem when it runs
on mdv 2007.1 or on ubuntu 8.04 LTS.
It seems to be related to the number of colors
used by the Xorg driver (the ATI driver to be specific).
That driver has the options: 8, 15, 16 or 24 bit.
The only depth that works is 8 bit, but the desktop
looks so ugly that it is not really a possibility.
Could somebody explain to me why 2008.1 has this
problem? Is there a fix?
