Sorry, what are you doing exactly ?
on the device, are you doing:
export DISPLAY=yourpcadress:0
So that things get displayed on your desktop instead ?

Hmmh. Okay, I will try to reproduce and let you know.
Thanks for reporting this.

- Status changed from new to closed
- Resolution set to invalid
Werner indicated rather something about the libs broken (because it looked like
a colordepth mismatch) and he's right. The actual fault is the EFL x11-16 engine
which obviously does some shortcuts to gain speed. With the usual EFL x11(32)
engine it forwarding works ok. Sorry for the noise.

the 16bit engines assumes the display is 16bpp and the same endianness/bit order
as the client. it assumes local-only operation, so forwarding to a non-16bit
display and/or not the same endianess will not work. yes - it's a shortcut by
that engine. the 32bit engine does do things "right". so yes - leave as invalid.
