monitor colors

Hi,

I am trying to compare two maps visually so I called
up two monitors at ther same time (x0 and x1). I
found that the same map has a different number of
colors or "resolution" on the two monitors.

x0 has 4 shades of red and 4 shades of blue
x1 has 1 red, 1 pink and 2 blues

furthermore the monitor x4 and x5 have a total of
3 colors instead of the 4 on x1.

Sun sparc IPX; Sept. 1 XDRIVER from "updates"

what is going on?
