I've wondered for a long time why I always get red text as blue and sometimes also black text as blue. I never realized it could be due to endianness differences. I use the same combination as you, GNUstep on x64 (-64), X server on PPC, art backend.

Hi Everyone,

I've done a bit more testing with GNUstep and remote X11 with the X server running on PowerPC (little endian) and the apps running on x86 (big endian):

With the xlib back end, everything is fine.
With the art back end, almost everything is fine, but pixmaps have their colours inverted.
With the cairo back end, everything has its colour inverted.

Since the xlib back end lacks a number of features, this isn't ideal. It is also, however, a lot more responsive than the other two (with art being slower than cairo).
