Ben,
You can use the patch I posted here recently to get QEMU to fix the BGR
problem internally. It doesn't have to be done at the VNC level - and
in fact, this way, you can use it on the Solaris native X server (or
even SunRays) in 24-bit

I guess the problem is that client format and pixel format are different.
The RFB protocol says that the server has to convert to the client format

problem internally. It doesn't have to be done at the VNC level - and
in fact, this way, you can use it on the Solaris native X server (or
even SunRays) in 24-bit color mode. I am attaching a new version of the
patch,
Sorry,
I should add that the automatic detection is only done for SDL. It
should be easy enough to add to the VNC side of things, but I didn't get
around to it yet. You can use the -bgr command-line option to qemu in
the VNC case to set it manually.

Hi,
I did not accept your patch for two reasons:
1) You changed the guest vga frame buffer format and I don't think this
is what you wanted (it can be useful to emulate VGA on big endian guests
though - the current implementation for ppc guests is a hack). What is
needed is to swap the host
Thanks for the explanation Fabrice... I guess I am not sure how to swap
the host pixel format without taking a performance penalty. So for now
I just offer the patch I made in case anyone else finds it useful for
their own needs. Maybe I'll revisit this in the future when I have more
time and
