If you want to give fixing this a try, i will happily assist you, i could even ressurect my amiga box for it, but i have not much time to really work on this right now. Notice also that there is a bug with the shadowfb code and the new ARGB cursor code, Daniel, i will try to generate a patch for it soon, maybe it would be good to have it integrated into your -2 package ?
