The code from XFree86 4.5 more or less works but the renderer doesn't seem to work very well ( or not at all ) with the double-buffering extension, GL-rendered images keep flickering and switching between GL and X contexts doesn't work either ( clipping remains active and a few other oddities ) have fun Michael pgpe1lH1eHsfA.pgp Description: PGP signature

Nice :) So I'll stop reinventing the wheel, wait until you're done and then import the result into NetBSD. I wonder if they fixed DRI support too. have fun Michael pgpY6xXTuIz1M.pgp Description: PGP signature

The problem seems to be that sunffb doesn't use xaa or the standard framebuffer manager. so I couldn't get the included render code to work. So my questions are: - is there a text somewhere describing how to add xrender functionality to a driver without using fbPictureInit() ? - is there some more comprehensive ffb documentation available somewhere? I think I know how alpha blending and so on is supposed to work ( from reading the mesa driver source ) but there are still a few more questions. This has already been done in X.Org's repository and it is on my to-do-soon list to merge in.
