--- Comment #24 from Ian Goddard <igoddard at nildram.co.uk>  2008-09-29 17:38:29 ---
I have the same problem on both my laptop and a Via thin client.  I now take
each release from git, build it and run the test suite (igoddard_laptop) and
check that the problem still exists with EA.  I then make a one line change and
install it (no more fontforge problems nowadays!).  I ran the test suite on one
of these rebuilds.  It fixed a whole bunch of test failures.

On the face of it the code could be greatly simplified by reducing the switch
at about line 300 of x11drv_main.c to return 16 on case 15, return depth on all
the other existing cases and leave the default in place.

However, the comment about opengl is a worry - if this were done would it break
opengl apps which could use a 32-bit depth from some H/W which reports 24? 
This is why I haven't submitted a patch.  If the test suite tests for such
opengl cases maybe it would be possible to put some such fix into a dev release
and be prepared to back it out with the intent of putting something better in
place if it does break tests.

Ian
