OK, heres where I am on this. By usinng the -f option to blink_task, I'm
able to partialy get this to work on a display with 24 colors.

blink_task pops up a smaill error window complaining about not being able
to int colrs. But display manager does come up. Now I have not yet done
anything to add an colors to the servers color database. Did you have to
add any Foxboro, or Sun specifc colors to rgb.text? 

I also have not yet moved the fints, but Im confortable with that as I have
doen it in the past. 

So I'm not getting any "highlighting" (like the password entry filed on the
change enviornment scree. Also on some of my displays, the color status are
incorrect. I'm not certain the node I;m testing on has naything that
_should_ be blinking, but I'm certainly not seeing anything blink.

Close, but still not close enough to deploy as a production operators
screen (which is the ultimate goal of what I'm doing).

Sugestiosn anyone?
