Description nkoozer 2013-12-12 06:56:18 UTC
In versions 4.8.5  4.10.1 and 4.10.5, when using color depth of 16, tool tips and similar items are surrounded by a black rectangle that is about 4 times the size of the actual tool-tip.  Also any highlighted items (such as items in a directory listing) become washed out with a multicolored band instead of a normal highlight.  This problem does not occur if the color depth is 8 or 24.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. start kde (using a color depth of 16 in xorg.conf)
2. open dolphin or system settings
3. pass mouse over items in the toolbar -or- items in the desktop panel.  Also select some items in dolphin.
Actual Results:  
Tool-tips appear and are surrounded by huge black rectangles.  Selected items in Dolphin become blotted out by a multicolored band of stripes.

Expected Results:  
Clean tool-tips and clean highlighted items.

I'm using Slackware 14.0 and 14.1 on about 20 machines with a variety of video cards.  The above described problem occurs on all of the machines.  I'm using the KDE packages as delivered in the Slackware distributions.

I am assuming you are using Oxygen style, if not, please reassign.

I have abandoned the use of Linux.  The developers have ruined the video
drivers such that I can't use Linux any more with the video cards that I
have.
