Hi All,
I just installed xmonad on a new Ubuntu 9.04 system and was hoping it would be quick to setup. I killed metacity and tried to run xmonad from the command line. I get the following error and not sure what it could be due to. I am using ghc 6.10.3 and seem to have all the necessary packages.
Would be great if I can get a hint of what is going on.

Thanks. Praki
Are you running on some sort of bizarre X11 configuration? Perhaps on a monochrome display? xmonad's defaults won't work if it can't initialize the colors "red" and "gray". Cheers, Spencer Janssen
