oops. The bitblit routines are rather hairy to follow, so I hope you dont mind me also asking; what are the pitfalls of me creating a pixmap myself? The constraints are that I want to be able to allocate an offscreen memory chunk myself via xf86AllocateLinear, then create a pixmap around it, and then be able to use the accelerated bitblit routines via gc->ops->CopyArea() Is the process of creating an offscreen pixmap "the hard way" documented anywhere? Like a place for tips for 2d card driver writers? _______________________________________________ Devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/devel
