Well, maybe I'm just being dense (it's been known to happen), but it looked as though the xf86AllocateOffscreenArea function used to create the depth buffer assumes the bit depth to be equal to the framebuffer bit depth. You pass width and height in pixels, but there's no parameter for bit depth. I'm assuming it gets that through the screen pointer. -- Leif Delgass http://www.retinalburn.net _______________________________________________ Dri-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/dri-devel
