System name:		planitia
Type and version:	i686 7.7.1A
Display type:		linux

What were you trying to do?
	I was trying to send zephyrs with a lot of colors to people on
SGI's and sparcstation 4's.

What's wrong:
	zephyrs with a lot of colors don't seem to work on SGI's and
sparcstation 4's. zwgc prints up a whole bunch of XAllocColor errors
and then just displays everything in the default color. These same
zephyrs appear to work fine on my system and on athena-x.dialup. The
only difference I know about, besides the platform is the version of
athena that is being used. Both my system and athena-x.dialup are
using 7.7something and I assume the other systems are running 8.something.

What should have happened:
	The colors should have displayed normally, like they did on my
system.

Please describe any relevant documentation references:
