Hi Faruk xf86AllocateOffscreenLinear seems to be right function. The pixmap cache thing was never working anyway because greedy 2D driver was using all the offscreen memory for pixmap cache and that was never fixed in xfree 3.x
check out RADEONAllocateMemory to see an example on how to use xf86AllocateOffscreenLinear. If you need any help with reading my lousy code please e-mail me. -- Dominik Behr On Mon, 22 Apr 2002 13:23:49 -0600 Faruk Grozdanic <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hello, > > I am trying to port the utah-glx s3savage drivers from xfree86 3.3.x to > 4.2.0 .
