[Pkg-fglrx-devel] Bug#597378: [fglrx] wrong colors (pink instead of blue, green instead of orange) in some images of XULRunner applications (Iceweasel, Icedove)

[Filipus Klutiero]

Package: fglrx-glx
Version: 1:10-7-1
Severity: important

fglrx 10.7 has an important regression from 10.6. I used 10.7 for about 
10 hours, and only noticed it in Iceweasel and Icedove (the only 
XULRunner applications I use). I checked this also affects Iceape. I use 
KDE. This happens with experimental or testing versions.

Colors in some images of these applications are rendered as different 
colors. Basically, blue shows as pink and orange shows as green. Green 
seems brown. I can't say what's the pattern. Affected images are not 
completely broken, they can still be recognized since the shapes are 
intact. I have no idea why some images show correctly and some don't. 
Amazingly, this rendering problem can be captured in a screenshot. The 
Icedove screenshot attached shows this very well in several icons, 
including the Local folders icon, one of the spam icons, the address 
book icon, the Write icon and the replied to icon. About half of images 
are affected. In a sample of 6 files, all png, 3 were affected, 3 
weren't. As you can see in the screenshot, the Spam icon shows fine in 
the column header, but wrongly as a folder icon. This bug is noticed in 
1 or few minutes of usage of these applications and is now immediately 
obvious to me. I'm using a Radeon HD 5650. Downgrading to 10.6 fixes. 
Restoring the default X/ATI configuration doesn't solve. This persists 
in 10.9.
