[Xquartz-dev] XQuartz-2.6.0_alpha1 (SL Only)

[Per Johansson]

Nice. RandR doesn't seem very stable yet though. If I launch Xquartz and type xrandr -s 1 in the xterm, all Xquartz windows will disappear. The screen is otherwise unchanged (still rootless). If I then type xrandr -s 0 in the invisible window, Xquartz crashes:

If I click the desktop and the the Xquartz icon after I do xrandr -s 1 I get too fullscreen mode and the window is visible. Still crashes on xrandr -s 0 though (or xrandr -s 2 for that matter).

xrandr -s 2 changes the mode, but it's still rootless and the window is still missing. xrandr -s 0 does not crash after that and changes back the mode. The xterm window can then be found in the upper right corner of the screen, almost off screen.

I'm on a MacBook Pro 15" (summer 2009) with 10.6.4.

PS. I have a game that seem to require 16 bit mode. Is there any way to run it now that there's no color depth switch in System Preferences?
