I have not tried this, but on my 256 color display I had a situation
where other applications used up most of the 256 colors in the
pallette.  When I started Netscape, it complained about only 8 or 9
colors available, suggested I start it with an option to install its
private pallette and proceded to work just fine - it didn't look very
flashy though...
