[news.eclipse.platform.swt] Icon Colors on a Sun Blade

Hi,

We have a problem with the display of Icons on a Sun Blade 150 under Solaris 9. Basically it looks like they are using a very small number of colors. Under 3.0.2 it was only the icons in the Trees, all others were OK. Whereas under 3.1 it has expanded to include the icons in the Toolbars. The only ones that are correct are those displayed in the Tabs of the various views and editors.

I had a poke around about SWT Color models, and I guess it would seem that it is using color index mode - not true color. The displays are set to 24 bits deep, and there is only one visual to choose from.

Interestingly enough when setting the display to a Sun Ray Thin Client, all looks fine. I did a comparison of the output from xdpyinfo and the only significant difference I can see is that the Sun Ray XServer supports 32 bit deep pixmaps, whereas the Blade only supports 24 bits.

Does anyone have any suggestions/hints as to what is going on here?

Are there any diagnostics/debug that I can enable to help understand what is going on?

thanks in advance

Greg
