Guys
could you create a wiki pages with "Possible problems with interacting tools on windows" or something like that?

I believe this problem is due to a combination of the unix vm putting garbage into the alpha channel (the extra 8bits in 32bit colour after RGB) and a Composite extension manager active on the X server. I think Metacity uses Composite as does Compiz and a few others.
I have zero expertise in this area, but in case it is related: Juan Vuletich posted a fix yesterday in Mantis 7376: "Bug in BitBlt (rgbMul sets alpha to 0)". I can't tell if this relates to the problem you are describing, but FWIW Juan's fix is in the latest VMMaker on SqueakSource (as of yesterday), so if you are building your on VM you can try it and see if it makes a difference.
Mmmm wierd. There are several tickets for the same problem? http://bugs.squeak.org/view.php?id=7376 http://bugs.squeak.org/view.php?id=7068 http://bugs.squeak.org/view.php?id=7001 http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/6759 Others mails: http://lists.squeakfoundation.org/pipermail/squeak-dev/2008-August/130935.ht... Other solution? http://squeakvm.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/branches/olpc/platforms/unix/vm-disp... I am confused haha. thanks! Mariano
