zgv, the graphics viewer, has stopped displaying jpegs properly.
It shows highly distorted colors, looks like weird 8-color cga-ish. gif's
and bmp's display fine. This is a .jpg issue. X is fine, jpegs on X (in
Netscape) are fine.
I've updated zgv (5.0) and svgalib (1.4 iirc).
This has started after I upgraded from Cirrus Logic to ATI VGA Wonder (ATI
Rage Pro, but that's what windows identifies it as).
Now I'm planning to update libjpeg to 6b. I have 62 and 6.0.1... I think.
Here, look:
164764 Mar 21 1999 /usr/lib/libjpeg.a
470 Mar 21 1999 /usr/lib/libjpeg.la
17 Jul 26 23:25 /usr/lib/libjpeg.so -> libjpeg.so.62.0.0
16 Jul 26 23:25 /usr/lib/libjpeg.so.6 -> libjpeg.so.6.0.1
140410 Mar 22 1999 /usr/lib/libjpeg.so.6.0.1
17 Jul 26 23:25 /usr/lib/libjpeg.so.62 -> libjpeg.so.62.0.0
142857 Mar 21 1999 /usr/lib/libjpeg.so.62.0.0
So, what's the fix? Should I update libjpeg? Think it'll work? Any other
svgalib gfx viewers?
