Hi,

Could you please provide a backtrace of the crash? If you have access to
gdb, this would be 1) "gdb app", 2) "run" 3) <app crashes> 4) "bt" and
5) post the output of this command. I have no problem reading 8, 16, 32 etc.
bpp xpm's on my linux box or the local ultra's (SunOS 5.6).

What version of gtk+/glib are you using?

Regards,
Tom
