ScreenShot of Actual results
This is a regression wrt to RHEL-5.1 which displayed the colours normally. This bugzilla has Keywords: Regression. Since no regressions are allowed between releases, it is also being proposed as a blocker for this release. Please resolve ASAP. NB, the patch quoted upstream solves one problem (big-endian vs little-endian colours), but causes another problem (24 vs 16 bpp colour). We'll get a fully operational patch for this from upstream soon... This is actually a problem with the GTK-VNC widget. Set dev ack for Dan. Created attachment 298529 [details]
Fix endian conversions
Fix built into gtk-vnc-0.3.2-2.el5 What X server & OS platform is being used for the display ? I have tested on a big-endian PPC display and it works correctly, so there must be some further difference. Please provide output of 'xdpyinfo' on the display being used for testing. I have now reproduced the problem. My previous fix addressed the case where GTK-VNC was running ona big-endian machine, and the X display was on a big-endian machine, with the VNC server on little endian. The scenario reported here is slightly different - GTK-VNC is running on a little-endian machine, but displayed on an X server on big-endian, and using VNC server on little-endian. This combination is not operating correctly. I am working on a fix for this problem Fixed in gtk-vnc-0.3.2-3.el5 An advisory has been issued which should help the problem described in this bug report. This report is therefore being closed with a resolution of ERRATA. For more information on the solution and/or where to find the updated files, please follow the link below. You may reopen this bug report if the solution does not work for you. http://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHEA-2008-0370.html |
