If so that's a pretty serious bug. But I can't see how that could happen in an etch->lenny upgrade, so any details (preferrably in a bug report against xserver-xorg) would be appreciated. > I've certainly seen that happen on SPARC with older versions.

Which makes the driver responsible for picking the depth. Unfortunately the suncg6 driver doesn't seem to do that quite right; we have a fix sitting in git since November 2007, but it looks like that was never uploaded. *sigh*. I'll try to get that fixed, thanks for pointing it out. Cheers, Julien -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [email protected]
