Different colormode between matchbox and X apps

Hello,

I am trying to make a demo based on a GPE / Familiar 0.8.3 snapshot image.

My framebuffer driver has a BGRA mode (instead of the more common RGB or
RGBA modes). While all X applications that I run (mainly GPE apps) are
displayed with correct colors, matchbox-window-manager and
matchbox-desktop are using a different colorset, displaying desktop
icons and windows decorations with wrong colors (see
http://free-electrons.com/issues/matchbox-apr1-2006/screen.jpg).

So, it seems that Matchbox is considering my framebuffer as RGB instead
of BGR. Is matchbox trying to get a private colormap, instead of using
the default one from X?

I checked the command line options for matchbox-window-manager and
matchbox-desktop, but didn't find anything about the colormap...

Here are the versions I'm using.

matchbox-applet-inputmanager - 0.6-r0 -
matchbox-common - 0.9.1-r0 -
matchbox-desktop - 0.9.1-r0 -
matchbox-panel-hacks - 0.3-1-r4 -
matchbox-panel-manager - 0.1-r0 -
matchbox-themes-gtk - 1.0-r0 -
matchbox-wm - 0.9.5+cvs-20051212-r1 -

Any hint for having the desktop and window decoration colors displayed
in a correct way?

    Thanks in advance,

    Cheers,

    Michael.
