As far as I understood, Mesa-solo required the linux framebuffer, which I don't have. I seriously don't want to be the one to start work on the mode-setting library. As far as pbuffers, once we've got the glue necessray I'll fix up the SiS driver for it, which should be quick. But all of this will take time to be done, and they aren't areas I've already worked in. Render, now, I should be able to fix this patch up in another day or maybe two, and make myself and normal users happy in the short term. -- Eric Anholt [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://people.freebsd.org/~anholt/ [EMAIL PROTECTED] ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the new InstallShield X. >From Windows to Linux, servers to mobile, InstallShield X is the one installation-authoring solution that does it all.
