36470 - On a multiple monitor Mac, all window colors are VERY wrong.

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Core :: XUL, defect, P1)

Description

[Jeremy Friesen]

When two monitors hooked up, all mozilla windows have severe color problems. The 
window backgrounds are always black, and most text elements are black as well. 
The only other color that seems to come through is dark blue. This happens in 
browser windows, the preference window, ANY mozilla window, and is makes the 
window completely illegible.

Tested with a PowerBook G3/400, MacOS 9.0.4 (with CarbonLib 1.0.3)
The problem occurs in both M15 and 4/19's nightly M16 build.

Putting on [nsbeta2+] radar.

This is related to bug 6061. We need to deal with multiple monitors and bit depth 
changes better.

Mass-moving undated nsbeta2+ bugs to M18

I think this is a dup, or at least related, to bug 6061.

Doesn't fit latest 'would ya pull it off the wire' criteria, marking nsbeta2- in
case it gets reopened.
