Running ftview on Sun and displaying on my Linux laptop gives me wrong
AA colors:

  available pixmap formats
  depth  pixbits  scanpad
     1       1       32
    16      16       32

Running ftview on my Linux laptop and displaying on Solaris gives me a
yellow(!) background, but apparently correct AA:

  available pixmap formats
  depth  pixbits  scanpad
     1       1       32
     8       8       32
    16      16       32
    24      32       32

    32      32       32


Is it probably an endianess problem?  I compiled on Sun, then
displayed on Sun, and it is OK.

Anyone with some X programming knowledge to fix that?
