This message generally occurs when you use XDRIVER with a X-windows
server in true color (16 or 24 bits)... You have two choices :
	- use a 256 color X-windows server (and have a bigger
	logical screen	size...
	- use XDRIVER24 instead of XDRIVER (better solution, works
	with all X11 color models

BTW, another question : why still distribute XDRIVER ? Looking at
sources, XDRIVER24 is just an enhancement of XDRIVER, and may be
considered as the current version... another thing to clean...
