AmiCygnix - wrong colours in window mode

The current version (1.0) of Cygnix can run in window mode, using the "picasso96pip" driver. But the colours are rather messed up: e.g. green instead of blue. Even a 32-bit Workbench screen doesn't seem to solve this... Any suggestions?

@mwoof

Which mode do you use for the workbench and for the AmiCygnix display? And which gfx card do you have?

If you use a 16bit mode for the AmiCygnix display it should work.

Now that you bring it up, mine's pink. Looks fine full screen.

@CygnusEd

Radeon 9250 (as in sig). I use a 1152x864x16 Workbench and tried a 1024x768x16 Cygnix window. I tried on a 32-bit Workbench too, but there was no change...

Oh, and the colour was pink, as tekmage said, my mistake...

@mwoof

Thanks!
But unfortunately everything is the same here, so I have no idea, where the problem is. Maybe this is a bug in the gfx card driver. When the display is pink, the pixel format seems to be a YUV mode, which it shouldn't be.

@CygnusEd

Here is my output:

5.RAM Disk:> boardinfo
board name: Radeon 9250
format 1
format 6
format 10
5.RAM Disk:> overlay_test_2
width: 256
height: 256
depth: 16
bytesperpixel: 2
bitsperpixel: 16
rgbformat: 0x0000000A


I've also took a picture of the screen if you would like me to email it to you.

the only thing I can think of is my workbench is set to 32 bit, not 24.

Great work bring the X11 environement to the Amiga!

@tekmage

Thanks for testing! Would be nice, if you could send me the screenshot. E-mail address is in my profile.

Thanks!

I have a Gigabyte version of the card, could that be a cause?
