Clarification of 8 bit color mapping problem

I don't understand why it is saying the visual is immutable.  See, you 
are using a PseudoColor visual, which, as opposed to a StaticColor 
visual, can have its color entries changed.  Thus, it doesn't make much 
sense to me that it is saying that the visual can't be changed.  Maybe 
it wants a DirectColor visual.

Does anyone else have any ideas?
