Please note that this message will contain a full copy of the comment thread, including the initial issue submission, for this request, not just the latest update. Category: UN*X version Group: trunk Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Brian Hinz (bphinz) Assigned to: Adam Tkac (atkac) Summary: Image distortion when depth = 8bpp (build issue?) Initial Comment: I noticed something odd while running some regression tests on the java viewer. Maybe this should be split into two tickets, but since both issues occur in 8bpp depth they may be related. (1) The x86_64 RHEL5 legacy Xvnc build fails to start-up from the cmd line when the server depth is set to 8bpp. It just dies silently after ~1s. When started via the vncserver script, Xvnc starts but GNOME goes nuts and a series of dialogs flash by before it eventually stops responding. None of these issues occur in 16bpp or 24bpp. The i686 binary runs fine on Ubuntu 11.04 except that... (2) Certain images are distorted even when running the i686 binary on Maverick. The width is only 50% of what it should be. Since this appears to be independent of the client or encoding method used, but is consistently reproducible with respect to particular applications, I would suspect that it's a build issue and not a problem with any TigerVNC code. I've attached a pair of screen shots, each of embedded flash video playing on the espn.com website. The 16bpp image looks fine but the 8bpp image is only half as wide as it should be. Note also that it isn't until the video begins to play that the width is distorted and that no other images are sized incorrectly, which seems to suggest to me that maybe there is a missing extension or something that the flash player is expecting. I'm posting this more as an "FYI" than bug fix request, since I doubt whether it's actually a TigerVNC problem. These tests were all run with DRC's 11/23 pre-release build. -brian ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=1126848&aid=3450766&group_id=254363 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ All the data continuously generated in your IT infrastructure contains a definitive record of customers, application performance, security threats, fraudulent activity, and more.
