Check your .Xdefaults file - it may be requiring an 8-bit depth

AIPStv*useTrueColor:           0

while your LInux box is running at 24.  Change the 0 to a 1 or better
yet get rid of the line.  Then do a

     xrdb -merge ~/.Xdefaults

I was about to give the reflex answer that you must run at either 8 or
24 bit depth, that 16 (the Linux default for some reason) is not
supported by XAS.  Details on that are at

      http://www.aoc.nrao.edu/aips/aipsmgr/index.html

but I suspect that the fault is in your .Xdefaults (not in root's
version).
