Actually I've been doing somethingwith the info from SGI indirectly. Unfortunately a lot of what we need to do X11 well is in XFree 3.9.* and because XFree have currently got a rather weird policy partly due to Xconsortium we are basically screwed on doing a proper SGI Linux server until they release 4.0 when we get all the current and rather nice XAA code. Right now 3.3 really really wants to believe that all the world has direct access to the frame buffer. Alan |
