I can confirm your problem at 32 bit colour with xclock etc.
OK at 24 bit and 16 bit (1280x1024) on my machine.
Out with the magnifying glass again!
Colin, you ran a 32bpp test and attached a screen
Hi Earle,
I thought we were OK at 32bpp (1280x1024) until I looked again!
Device dependence maybe, I'm got an old ATI Rage Pro card (don't ask why?).
It's the black and white icon's images that's are going wrong not the masks.
The black (0) is rendered transparent.
I've just started a trace on
In response to Earle's question: I'm using ATI Mobility Radeon.

Hi Earle,
I just love ATI, great hardware... pity about the software!
It's always a struggle with drivers, I've got loads of soundcards I have
'fun' with as well.
At least the 'old' hardware maybe has a driver on Linux (that's why I still
use 'em...)
Putting the trumpet away:-

They had and still have the best TV out support. I wish my GF or
Voodoos had 1/2 the configurability.

Hi Colin and Lev:
Here's a fix for 32bpp icons on ATI machines. It turns out that I was setting
an alpha value which is technically not supposed to be set in each 32bpp pixel.
3dfx and nVidia drivers ignore the value, but ATI looks looks at it and says,
Whoa, junk this bitmap! Tests on my
Making the icons work was a really good idea. But it doesn't seem to work
right for me - the icons appear, but only in 2 colours - transparent and
white. Presumably the mask is converted correctly but not the
icon itself. I checked with xclock, oclock, xditview, xcalc, xload.
It only happens
