When apprunner is run on an 8-bit pseudocolor display, the selection does not reverse video as expected. Drag selections or double/triple clicked selections do not appear any different than normal text. Makes various editing operation impossible. Tested on 11/3 evening CVS pull compiled solaris/native .

Is this related to bug 10699? BTW: I see this under Linux 8-bit displays too (02200022).

I hope i just fixed this. tor, could you verify?

tor, could you possibly verify this on a current build? QA doesn't have any Sun boxes.
A linux box running in 8-bit mode will exhibit the same problem/solution. Nevertheless, I'll try to test on an 8-bit solaris box sometime today.
Attached image selection on an 8-bit screen (deleted) —
See the attached image - while the selection area is now visible, the actual text being selected is unreadable (at least for black on white text).

selection isn't XORing anymore. marking this bug fixed. filing a new bug that XORd painting doesn't work very well on 8bit displays -- bug 34039.

I'm unable to reproduce this problem on the April 3rd Linux build configured for 8-bit depth. Thus, verifying as fixed.
