Hi all, Factor in darcs now uses the GLX_MESA_copy_sub_buffer extension (if available) to copy parts of the back-buffer to the front-buffer.
On my Linux/ppc machine, this sometimes crashes the X server. I suspect its a bug in MESA. Can other X11 users test this patch and tell me what happens? In particular, I'd be interested in hearing from people who: - use the proprietary NVidia driver on Linux - use MESA on Linux x86 - use the Compiz or Beryl compositing window manager -- this was reported to cause repaint problems with Factor in the past, and using GLX_MESA_copy_sub_buffer might have solved these problems Your help is appreciated to ensure that Factor 0.90 is as stable as possible, Slava ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
