Well, I want to run mozilla M18 on xvfb 3.3.6, to take screenshots of websites
automatically on our server.
Here is what I do (in pseudo code):
for bpp in 8 16 24; do
Xvfb :1 -screen 0 800x600x$bpp [as root]
export DISPLAY=":1.0"
xdpyinfo >tmp/xdpyinfo-$bpp.txt
civclient-gtk
[I wait a bit]
import -window root tmp/freeciv-$bpp.jpeg
mozilla -chrome http://slashdot.org/
[I wait a bit more]
import -window root tmp/mozilla-$bpp.jpeg
done
xdpyinfo-*.txt, freeciv-*.jpeg and mozilla-*.jpeg are available in
http://www.if.insa-lyon.fr/eleves/jzago/tmp/xvfb/
As you can see, freeciv is fine in 8bbp and 24bbp, mozilla is also fine in
8bbp, but not in 24bbp. Note also that none are fine in 16bbp. I would like
mozilla to look fine in 24bbp.
Thank you for your time.
Agt the Walker.
