Yes, this seems to be normal.
We encountered the same thing with different color depths.
If I remember right, 24 bit did not work at all, 16 and 32 worked.
This "bug" should be mentioned in the Blackdown bug list.
I did not try it with Motif LooknFeel, so I cant comment on that
affecting Metal only.
