I (the obtensible author of that mess) have no problems with any PNG
images whatsoever... Could you check out the PngSuite images at
http://schaik.com/pngsuite/pngsuite_body.html and tell me which of 'em
fails for you? Could either (or both) of you please send me the
output of 'ldd xeamcs' and 'xdpyinfo' please? The problem you mention
sounds much like the library bug in libpng1.0.1 which doesn't show up
in xv or gimp because they handle conversions between colorspaces and
depths internally, instead of using the library's functions. Also,
Karl, didn't you say that it works fine on your desktop machine, but
not on your laptop? Could you please list the differences between
them for me?
Thanx.
