Re: [ANNOUNCEMENT] Server Test 71 [DEBUG BUILD]


Erik,

Great! Okay, one last one before I will have to wait until this evening to do some debugging of the GDI DIB engine: please run the following and report your results:
XWin.exe -engine 1


Thanks so much for testing,

Harold

The real problem here may be the way that the GDI DIB engine handles 24
bpp... not necessarily anything wrong with the MultiWindow mode. This seems
quick realistic, since the GDI DIB engine is not used unless specified or
unless you are using the MultiWindow mode, so a bug in the GDI DIB engine
could have gone undiscovered for a long time.

You seem to be on to something here since

XWin.exe -engine 1 -rootless

crashes for me in 24bpp mode.
