Hi

The 32-bit and 64-bit versions of SimCity don't work because I have this error:

Adding a player on :0.0... SimCity can't find 8-bit color or 1-bit monochrome display on: ":0.0". Couldn't add a player on :0.0... SimCity is exiting because it couldn't connect to any players.

Initially, I thought it was caused by a broken CDE, and I hadn't reinstalled the system yet. However. the demo version of Dominions: Priests, Prophets, and Pretenders works in a fail-safe session.

Do you have the same issue with SimCity on HP-UX?

Can you fix it?

Thank you for the answer.

I typed this command before I ran Simcity, but I still see the same error:

Adding a player on :0.0... SimCity can't find 8-bit color or 1-bit monochrome display on: ":0.0". Couldn't add a player on :0.0... SimCity is exiting because it couldn't connect to any players.
