[comp.windows.x] XView -- bg/fg color question

Greetings,

	I am using XView and OpenWindows. Given a handle to an XView popup
window object (a frame), I am trying to get the actual (system colormap) 
pixel values for the window frame's background/foreground. I know how to get
the CMS logical pixel values for the window frame's background/foreground, BUT
I want the real physical pixel values into the server's colormap so that
I can set up a GC for Xlib drawing. Any pointer's are appreciated.

thanks,
Edmond
