Sure it is, but thats not the question.
It seems like something is buggy in the Nokia770 graphic architecture,
no idea wether its kdrive, gtk or just a wrong interpretation of
written standards.

My opinion is that software that runs across tons of different
platforms withought modifications but breaks on Maemo should be fixed,
especially if critical design descisions were made for software
compatibility (gtk, x-server based design).

I am a bit dissapointed how little feedback we got from nokia - one
guy mentioned its a bug, another mentioned its not. Thats it, no
constructive discussion at all :-(
