Alan, The error message (or rather warning) is due to the QApplication trying to process the "-bg" argument, which is among the accepted arguments for a QApplication (try "qt_example -bg red" for instance). There is obviously a conflict, but nothing that would stop the software to work, so it is a choice for the developer to filter out or not the "-bg" arguments or make them available to either QApplication or the widget. Maybe we should add a comment there?

It applies and builds without errors and the speedup in -dev qtwidget for animations like example 17 is extraordinary. I also get a x17c -dev qtwidget time that is comparable with the -dev xwin one. If I try ./qt_example -bg ffffff I do get the specified white background to the GUI. However, I also get the error message QColor::setNamedColor: Unknown color name 'ffffff' Can that error message be suppressed or are we stuck with it? That's the last qt issue (and an extremely minor one at that) that I am aware of on Linux. Thanks very much for all your efforts to make the qt devices some of the best that we have on Linux, and I am sure that with some additional work (especially with lots of test reports from our developers to help you narrow down the issues) the same will be true on Mac OS X and Windows. I have committed your patch as revision 10346. I am really happy to see this go in before our release. Alan __________________________ Alan W.
