Bryan..

This sounds familiar to me.. I believe that if you don't specify the AA
mode explicitly, you are not guaranteed to get any specific results. You
should be requesting the specific visual that you want when you set up the
channel/window to ensure that you are getting the right mode.

What is most likely happening is that you are "accidentally" getting the
right modes on some channels, and not on others.

Check the man (3pf) page for pfAntialias for more details..

Good Luck!
