If you're running two apps, do they both have their own surface managers or is there some kind of global (cross-process) surface manager? It seems to me that you wouldn't want two apps trying to move surfaces back and forth from system to video memory (unless there is some kind of global manager). Again, thanks for any info - sorry if I'm being a pain :) Stephen -- Info: To unsubscribe send a mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe directfb-users" as subject.
