Hi,
if I ask for more than 4 alpha bits with GLCapabilities I get this error

Exception in thread "main" net.java.games.jogl.GLException: Error making context
current
	at net.java.games.jogl.impl.x11.X11GLContext.makeCurrent(X11GLContext.java:138)

	at com.xith3d.test.CubeTest.<init>(CubeTest.java:190)
	at com.xith3d.test.CubeTest.main(CubeTest.java:580)

(stack trace is from xith example, but I have the same problem even from Gears
demo if I change GLCapabilities). 

I'm running latest cvs version of jogl on linux 2.4.20, xfree 4.2.1, nvidia
opengl drivers 4363, geforce 2.

The Capabilities chosen in DefaultGLCapabilitiesChooser is

GLCapabilities [DoubleBuffered: true, Stereo: false, HardwareAccelerated: true,
DepthBits: 24, StencilBits: 8, Red: 8, Green: 8, Blue: 8, Alpha: 8, Red Accum:
16, Green Accum: 16, Blue Accum: 16, Alpha Accum: 16 ]

Sorry for not commenting on this bug until now. Many issues related to pixel
format / visual selection have been fixed in recent betas. Please retest with
the latest JOGL beta and reopen this issue or file a new one if problems persist.
