Hi, i just installed mc22 on debian but when i start the application i receive an empty window with nothing in it .. all white ?
Running latest debian and mc versions and connected to my server using mobaxterm. Running under root since my regular user also get a database read only error .. but thats for later to fix i guess.
Any clues ?
Thanks Koen

Are you running a 24 bit XServer? MC will not work with 8 or 16 bit XServers.

Hi no idea how to check that but i am runnung xrdp installed last week so pretty recent.. gephi visualization and my mobaxterm desktop runs fine ..

I don't know how to configure your setup but if you open a xterm and type in xdpyinfo you should be able to tell what you are running.
MC simply requires a 24 bit color XServer configuration and any client that connects to it must request 24 bits.

Hi, below is what i get back from that command.. looks like 16 bits ? Can you verify and what xserver do you recommend ? Using Debian Jessie 8.7.1.
Thanks

Since there are a lot of people doing what you are but the information is scattered around the forums I've started a new topic where users can contribute their configurations.
