Now /that/ was helpful. Guess I'm on my own here.Not really. This sounds like the kind of thing that is right up the mibank screen wrapper's alley, assuming the tiles are all the same size.
They are, always 64KB, depending on colour depth they're 512x128, 256x128 or 128x128 pixels.
mibank can interoperate with any other screen wrapper (including XAA), except shadowfb, because the later is not a true screen wrapper.An example of the use of mibank can be found in ATIPreInit() and ATIScreenInit(). Mine, that is; not X.Org's lobotomised imitations of same.
That sounds like it's what I need, thanks! have fun Michael -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.7 (Darwin) iQEVAwUBR9GKRspnzkX8Yg2nAQK9fwf/bNN+ZV299AWKn2PFcLi67H82tH6JoSTd Ykhwgnai7fw8iMhY9wPIK3nbYkWaEE88CdQ8ZzEyYVGcPix+XDydo+kbs5xSPvNr +t+YHWabiyopbq3YjE1QXUzh6xNwknMRSuGo6iEzWSUhQfxpwzPNwXePZK7+PDdw 1OhKu9QpI8jxLqQOoH5BYTteK8leuVx15E+m1hXhIgFbrdnIgzF7bSnD5SkJwqou QEnXXGY+A1Tx60RfrZssFDSA1+TnINKN55jJFRBWCC5DYRitFpRdXVqfyZdPU4dt aW5qVAPk8NJl2/+Ck5tJrjvoBqo8dxl7MCGjBqkDRMFS/To2XKYBYQ== =kP5V -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Devel mailing list Devel@XFree86.Org http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/devel
