Re: Bug#90305: WindowMaker close and iconify buttons garbled on PowerPC



Hi,

Best would be to wait for the very next version of Window Maker (0.65.0
that would be). It includes a dependency on the Hermes library, for
dithering and such which should solve people having garbled screens,
like in this screenshot:

Somebody with this problem and some time, please test the CVS version of
Window Maker, and send the result of your experience to me, and to
developers@windowmaker.org

The other fix is running X at 24bpp...
