Indeed. I wasn't aware of its existence.

(i suppose somewhere in de > drivers/ati/radeon_* files) 2D acceleration on X is named XAA. It's done by radeon_accel.c but has nothing to do with 3D software rendering. Basicaly just accelerate stuff for windows handling, such as blits. 3D acceleration is done in xc/lib/GL/mesa/src/drv/radeon. The software/hardware rendering decision is made in radeon_tris.c by radeonFallback(), but you'll probably want to override it right from radeonInitTriFuncs(), by using the software rendering callbacks instead of Radeon's. > > I'll let you know when i managed to get something ready.. > > Peter. > José Fonseca _______________________________________________________________ Don't miss the 2002 Sprint PCS Application Developer's Conference August 25-28 in Las Vegas - http://devcon.sprintpcs.com/adp/index.cfm?source=osdntextlink _______________________________________________ Dri-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/dri-devel
