Comment 45 for bug 61303

Hi,

I also hit this behaviour in a RHEL5 + Sun Secure Global Desktop scenario.

Error: Cairo does not yet support the requested image format:
        Depth: 8
        Alpha mask: 0x00000000
        Red mask: 0x00000000
        Blue mask: 0x00000000
        Green mask: 0x00000000
Please file an enhacement request (quoting the above) at:
http://bugs.freedesktop.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=cairo
gnome_segv: cairo-image-surface.c:144: _cairo_format_from_pixman_format: Asserti
on `NOT_REACHED' failed.

[root@localhost ~]# rpm -aq | grep -i pango
pango-1.13.4-2
pycairo-1.2.0-1.1
cairo-1.2.0-2

I read through all the related info here now, and I think someone from the dev's
should test the patches submitted here AND drop a line to Redhat. They might
want to patch up their version.

FYI, i think I can switch my colordepth setting somewhere, but when I hit the
error I ended up getting about 200 windows created till I could kill it - *not*
pleasant :))
