Bug 137752 – glReadPixels on NVidia cards return the wrong values for the alpha channel when alpha is off

• Status: RESOLVED
• Resolution: DUPLICATE
• Component: WebGL

[Roger Fong]

When you create a rendering context with alpha:false, this means that the context returned should be opaque.
However, with nvidia cards, calling glreadpixels on such contexts returns the wrong value. It returns 0's in the alpha channel, they should be 255 instead.

As a workaround for this, after calls to ::glReadPixels we should manually set the alpha channel to 255 if alpha is off for the context.

I believe this is the last failing 1.0.2 test on at least the 2 nvidia cards i've tested on. (the 9600M GT and the 750 M)
