Hi, Have anybody used vnc server for X (running at 16 bpp, commandline option '-depth 16') viewed with vncviewer (for any platform) running at 16 bpp too (same commandline switch). I tried rather lot of combinations of vnc server for X/(viewer,platform) and on all of them images that are displayed using gdk (probably using imlib, but I can be wrong) are displayed totally incorrectly - some junk (looking like white noise + color) without any similarity to the original images. It's not a bug in vnc software since qt and motif apps look fine at showing pictures (netscape, kview). It seems there is a nasty bug in gdk. More information: gcolorsel shows right colors, only areas that were drawn by copying pixmap are broken (root window's image, enlightnement's decorations, and (if pixmap theme is selected) every gtk widget. I've tried various versions of Xvnc (including most recent 3.3.3r1) and vncviewer for X and Windows - both show the same. I used gtk-1.2.6 on RH6.2 on x86. I've attached screenshot of gpanel. The current gtk theme is SatinBlack, so everything should be dark shades of gray on the shot, but it looks like some noise (though gradients are seen). Have anybody reported anything? Best regards, -Vlad
