You are probably starting your X-server with 8-bit colordepth and all
the fancy WindowMaker (a very cool window manager, I use it too!) stuff
definitely uses more that 256 colors.

Try the following 

touch ~/.xserverrc; mv ~/.xserverrc ~/.xserverrc.bak       
echo 'exec X -bpp 16' > ~/.xserverrc

Then launch X with 'startx' or 'xinit'.
The first line does a backup of your (maybe inexistent) .xserverrc,
so if this completely messes up your system, you can restore your old
settings with

mv ~/.xserverrc ~/.xserverrc.bak

The second line forces X to start with a higher colordepth.
