Thanks :-)

The graphics context code has stopped working?  Or the compression?

FYI, I've quietened down the RGB plugin warning so it's only emitted
when you try to write a compressed image to a .rgb file.  This change
now checked into the 3.6 branch, so the warning won't appear once
3.6.1 comes out.

This morning I had a bash at recreating the crash on my system so
cobbled together a test application the uses a bit of your code
snippet and some code for creating the graphics context.

The code works fine for me using the 3.6 branch head on my Kubuntu
system.  I have just built against 3.6.0 and it works fine as well.

Could you test the test program and let me know what happens.

For future reference, the best way for myself and others to be able to
investigate issues is to have a complete compilable example like the
attached one, otherwise it's a lot more work and far more likely to
not recreate issues that you see, we basically have to take a best
guess what we think you have, write it and hope for the best.  Copy
and pasting snippets is very poor second to having a compilable
application.

Cheers,
Robert.
