X-11 Server files missing....

    When trying to get my 3630 to start an X server process, I get an error
    to the effect that a certain file is missing:

    >rel-8-1>x11>server>rgb.text.newest

    Since my machine has a monochrome 60Hz monitor, I presume that rgb.text
    is not applicable. Trouble is, how do I circumvent the load operation ?

This file is used to translate symbolic color names to RGB values.  I
haven't tried it, but you could just create an empty file.  However,
some applications will reference colors by name even when they're
running on a monochrome terminal (they expect the terminal to map the
RGB to something appropriate), so you may get errors from this.

    Failing that, does anyone have a copy of the file which they would care
    to let me have via email ?

If you have any Unix machines running X, just copy the file from there.
It's just an ordinary text file.

If you can't find it at your site, let me know and I'll mail it to you.
