color depth=12, image bpp=16, msb first is not supported by GdkRGB. Please
submit a bug report with the above values to bugzilla.gnome.org" Loaded the GTK2

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:

2. Load GTK2

Visual type=pseudo color depth=12, image bpp=16, msb first is not supported by
GdkRGB. Please submit a bug report with the above values to bugzilla.gnome.org"

Expected Results:  
bring up the mozilla browser without crashing

If there is another version of mozilla which does support a 12-plane Pseudo
Color display, I am willing to try it out.

I wonder if this could be a Gdk bug (because it says submit your bugreport at
bugzilla.gnome.org)?

[Boris Zbarsky [:bzbarsky]]

Yeah, this is a GDK bug that should be reported to the GDK folks...

could someone please make sure this is filed in bugzilla.gnome.org? (mark the bug verified when there's a url for the gnome bug.)
