Dongyu,
The error message below seems to indicate that your display is running
in 24 bit mode (as I had previously described lower in this thread.
What version of GEMPAK are you running?
Beginning with the GEMPAK 5.6.g release, 24 bit color is now supported.
If you are running a version older than 5.6.g, then you either have to set
your X display to 8 bit color, or upgrade your GEMPAK distribution.
You can check your X display configuration using the "xdpyinfo" command.
This command will show what the color setting is for your default visual id.
