Indeed. And it is not only the problem of the pipe_*_context creation. There is the problem of the state tracker still reaching out parts of the winsys. I really think that a simple driver with a generic interface query as I proposed in http://www.mail-archive.com/mesa3d-dev@lists.sourceforge.net/msg07818.html is the best, and we sorely need it, with the recent and welcomed increase of pipe drivers and state trackers. I'll try to prototype this on a few state trackers and see how it goes. Jose ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Come build with us!
