Okay, that makes perfect sense. Let me see if I can figure out how to
get SDL to report the ordering, and I'll try to roll it out that way.
thanks for clarifying,

Unfortunately X11 will not allow you to force a certain color order in
24-bit mode. You can tell it to force byte-order but this only affects
16-bit blits - it's ignored for 24-bit since the individual components
of the 24-bit blits, even if packed into 32-bits, are still 8-bits long.
That's what the color masks are for. There is no efficient way to do
this at the server level that I can see. If you find a better way
(within the current scope of the VGA architecture), I'd be glad to try
to implement it. I was just sharing something that was useful to me.
It should be possible to select between different 24-bit packings the same way
different bit depths are handled.
