Hello,

With Pavel, we discovered a strange behavior of the primitive #primitiveScreenDepth on Linux. It returns a value of 24 bits per pixel (True colors) that looks valid but not supported (at least by Pharo).

DisplayScreen actualScreenDepth "(calling the primitive screenDepth)" => 32 on OS X [OK] => 24 on Linux [KO]

Also, it is not consistent with the primitive 91

DisplayScreen new supportsDisplayDepth: DisplayScreen actualScreenDepth => true on OS X => false on Linux

There are some safeguard image-side but it would be great if someone could check that vm side.

That seems wrong indeed, since BitBlt can only handle power-of-two depths currently. It should answer 32 or -32 in this case.

Actually ... is there a difference in pixel layout for 32 bit MSB vs LSB forms? A quick test in SqueakJS suggests there isn’t.

I do not get what you mean by 32 bits MSB vs LSB form. Could you give an example of what to test? If you mean a difference between depth 32 or -32, I do not see any difference. Christophe
