I am running Ubuntu 14.04 and installed trinity R14 on top of it

I just compiled GNU emacs and tried to start it.

it crashes with

emacs Undefined color: "FOREGROUND"

xemacs is fine.

emacs works in Ubuntu. Any idea?

this is a serious bug.

thanks

Installed R14 today and encountered the very same problem. Found a bug report with workaround: http://bugs.trinitydesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1375#c4

A few years ago, I had this problem once with KDE, but I don't remember the exact solution. I had to do something with .Xresources, . Xdefaults, and eventually run xrdb I think. I think you have to define a global color for X or something for both FOREGROUND and BACKGROUND.
