aMule and KDE4
« on: January 15, 2009, 12:26:52 AM »

I have just tested the current SVN code after upgrading to KDE4 and I have no graphics on statistics or Kad window, all is black like it used to be in MacOSX before it was fixed.

Discuss.

Weird. Why would KDE have any influence on wxGTK?

The original problem with Mac was that they had changed the painting engine to support the "painter" model, so they messed raster operations and only support COPY. All other ROPS became void.

Interesting way to be multiplatform, isn't it? :P

I am guessing here but i think these two things combined are happening:

- QT4 doesn't support raster OPS, used both in Mac and KDE user interfaces.
- Your distro uses this to make gtk apps look native

So wxWidgets uses GTK+, which is wrapped to QT....
