But I didn't find the string BACKGROUND in any file from the tk and gitk packages, so it must be coming from somewhere outside. Maybe the desktop sneaks it in through X ressources. Klaus, can you please try "xrdb -query | grep BACKGROUND" ? -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

So, it looks like there was a change in the desktop (KDE?) between 11.2 and 11.3, which causes it to put these undefined color names into the ressource dtabase. BTW, this affects other X applications as well: ~ $ xterm Warning: Color name "WINDOW_BACKGROUND" is not defined ~ $ xeyes Warning: Color name "BACKGROUND" is not defined Please reassign to the maintainers of the desktop you are using. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
