I think all of them are good ideas. Other problem I found with the screen is when I have an image saved in a 17" monitor for example, and the I open it in a 15", the screen is crap. It would be nice Squeak recognize the actual screen resolution of the pc you are running and adapt the squeak image to that resolution. <br>

How about a test screen?<br>
It seems to me displaying certain patterns would probably<br>
pin point things fairly quick.<br>
The discription of the problem indicated<br>
that white and black had different transparencies.<br>
What about other colors?<br>
Which bytes get mistook for alpha channel?<br>
<br>
What form of pattern would diagnose the problem most easily?<br>
Then is the problem the same on all linuxes or different on differnt ones?<br>
<br>
Squeak color stuff has known bugs. Some of them hard to trace.<br>
With a lot of integration bugs.<br>
Many due to different authors with different assumptions.<br>
<br>
So I imagine getting a handle on how to make it work elegantly<br>
will take real study on someones part.<br>
<br>
Yours in service and curiosity, --Jerome Peace<br>
