Re: Got 8 bits per pixel?


Hi,

from my pc (either Win or Cygwin), telnet to Solaris.
Then, in this telnet : 
$ setenv DISPLAY my_pc:0
$ xterm &

Xterm appears on my XWin on my pc.
In this xterm, I have the strange beavior.
Solaris 2.5.1 : bad
Solaris 2.7   : bad
Solaris 2.8   : good

This never appened on other X-servers.

Thanks.
