amsn doesn't start... because of a colour error?!!

Yet another post by moi.. so many problems arise when you fiddle around with your desktops and apps

Any idea what's causing this?

Error in startup script: unknown color name "white"
    (processing "-background" option)
    invoked from within
"text $window.info -background white -width 60 -height 30 -wrap word  -yscrollcommand "$window.ys set""
    (procedure "::pluginslog::draw" line 10)
    invoked from within
"::pluginslog::draw"
    invoked from within
"if { $initialize_amsn == 1 } {
     ::pluginslog::draw
}"
    (file "pluginslog.tcl" line 205)
    invoked from within
"source pluginslog.tcl"
    ("uplevel" body line 22)
    invoked from within
"uplevel #0 {
    
    source ctthemes.tcl
    source progressbar.tcl    ;# Progressbar Megawidget
    source migmd5.tcl
    source des.tcl        ;# DES encryption
    source s..."
    (procedure "reload_files" line 2)
    invoked from within
"reload_files"
    (file "/usr/bin/amsn" line 233)

I've got tcl-cvs and tk-cvs installed from cimi's repository , so that's not the problem...

Re: amsn doesn't start... because of a colour error?!!

color errors usually are due to wrong path to rgb.txt in xorg.conf.
Can you check what your path to rgb in xorg.conf is ?

Re: amsn doesn't start... because of a colour error?!!

Did you recently upgraded to xorg7?
take a look into /etc/X11/xorg.conf and check that RgbPath is set correctly

...
Section "Files"
    RgbPath      "/usr/share/X11/rgb"
...
