see https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4315 Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: I've filed a bug upstream with xorg-x11 along with a patch that fixes the problem. However, the attached patch should be added to the Gentoo xorg-x11 patchset for the 6.8.99.X ebuilds in the meantime. This patch also fixes the same problem on ffb2+ for sparc, and possibly many other X11 drivers for graphics devices on big endian machines.
Created attachment 67303 [details, diff] fixes endian problem with swapped r and b colors
Just a "me too" message to say this fixes the color problems I was having on a Sun Blade 1000 with Creator3D.
will add to the 99's
I confirmed that this is still a problem in upstream CVS. I'll apply the patch to modular and post a patch upstream if it differs on the CVS tree. In the meantime this bug is left in the hands of upstream. For reference, the URL that was originally here: http://beerandrocks.net:8080/~spbecker/wtf.png
Just for reference, this patch has now been applied to cvs HEAD upstream.
While its great and all that upstream fixed it, can we get it fixed at least in the monolithic pre-6.8 X builds?
Josh, you can take over the 6.8.x ebuilds. It's your call whether to do this, although I'd like to remind you we are in maintenance mode on them and trying our very hardest to have no chance of introducing any new bugs.
Re-assigning to myself.
This patch is pretty simple and I'm making changes anyways, so it has been added to 6.8.99.15-r3.
