Bug ID: 372202
Summary: Wrong coloring when running on Big Endian architecture
Product: plasmashell
Version: 5.8.3
Platform: Compiled Sources
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: major
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: k...@davidedmundson.co.uk

Glitched out color, while systemsettings is fine
When running Plasma Shell on my PowerMac G5 Quad with GeForce 6600LE (possibly
not relevant, will explain in a bit), the Plasma Shell is displayed with a
strong blue and violet hue (possibly due to wrong RGBA mapping).
(More to be seen in the screenshot)
Note, in the screenshot attached below, the color for systemsettings is normal,
but everything else is quite messed up. This also applies to QML-based KDE
applications like Plasma Discover.
So at first I thought that this was a nouveau issue on big endian machines,
therefore I have opened a bug report here:
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=98630. However, after trying on
the "fbdev" driver - which gives the same coloring issue - I thought I should
let you guys know about this issue.
This issue also applies when running Plasma Discover on another desktop
environment like XFCE - which has all the right color displayed - but it would
be really nice to have KDE working on my G5 anyways, as it does appear to run
quite quickly.

test this on, so here you go):
