I had a similar problem last month due to a difference in search path
for rgb.txt.
It showed up in etch(testing) when I replaced xfree86 by xorg.
I had to install a missing symlink.
This is from sarge(stable) which runs xfree86
ls -l `locate rgb.txt`
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 17371 May 31 2005 /etc/X11/rgb.txt
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 16 Jan 29 22:59 /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/rgb.txt ->
/etc/X11/rgb.txt
Regards
Nick
