Ok... Your "fix" with OR'ing is not a good one as that makes an assumption about display mode settings. Idea of mapping colors is to get most optimal color settings for desired video mode. Nevertheless I think I know the problem and I get back to you shortly... now I sleep :) That zero alpha setting most likely comes from color table being specified. (or from video mode settings currently in use, eg. no alpha/reserved bits) _______________________________________________ Grub-devel mailing list Grub-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/grub-devel
