Well it would have been nice if you would've filed a bug report about that. Had we known about that earlier, it may have been possible to fix that in a Snow Leopard Software Update, but with Lion heading out the door soon, there's not much likelihood of that happening. Lesson learned for the future: unreported bugs don't usually get fixed ;)
That being said, I'm glad the latest XQuartz releases have addressed your issue. I've put a bunch of work into GLX since 2.3.x (some of which won't be landing until 2.7.0), so I'm glad some of it is having an impact. --Jeremy On Jun 23, 2011, at 23:42, Tony Bernardin wrote: > In response to Jeremy's comments: > > About the color banding issue for the Apple provided X11 (__not__ XQuartz) > here is an older message that contains example code.
