PS: If I force the bpp to 24 (thereby overruling the result from the
BitsPerPixel(depth) macro), it does not crash. Drawing operations such
as fill and copy work correctly, but text and other stuff is drawn at
completely wrong positions.
Especially interesting: When I move the console window, the text in it
is redrawn in wrong colors, too far to the left, but at the correct y
position.
The offset to the left is obviously caused by the x coordinate being
interpreted for 32bpp, not 24 (somthing is divided by 4 and not 3): If I
move the console window to the left screen edge, the offset is nearly 0
(nearly because the window border is still there, which is 4 pixels),
and it increases when I move the window to the right. It's obvious that
this offset is also the reason for the wrong colors.
The problem obviously also leads to some serious memory issue as my
hardware cursor image gets overwritten constantly. This image is located
at the top of the video RAM, which is quite at its limits. The card has
4MB, I am running at 1280x1024x24....
To make sure: This does not occure when acceleration is disabled or if
XAA is used. The composite extension was disabled through all my tests.
