Nope. I don't want to write a new application which rendered to offscreen. All GL application are rendered inside a window (x window), I want to redirect this window, which is associated to GL to offscreen. I need this because I work on 3D Desktop, which use XComposite extension to redirect requested windows to offscreen. so I can manage then in 3D Desktop. GL Applications can't currently be redirect to offscreen by XComposite, because DRI write directly to screen, it didn't use X Server BitBlit operations, which access the framebuffer of the video card. -- Amir Bukhari <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: YOU BE THE JUDGE.
