GGI snapshot problem on

2000-06-21 Thread Niklas Elmqvist

Hello, list,

I recently downloaded and compiled the latest ggi snapshot
(ggi-devel-2615.tar.bz2) from the website, but experienced some
problems when trying to run the demos in /lib/libggidemos. I'll let you
analyze what's going on:

[elm@pc9 libggidemos]$ ./dots 
X Error of failed request:  BadAccess (attempt to access private
resource denied)
  Major opcode of failed request:  2 (X_ChangeWindowAttributes)
  Serial number of failed request:  37
  Current serial number in output stream:  39

All demos produce the same output. 

My current setup:

RedHat 6.2 distro on a PentiumII-333
XFree86-3.3.6-20 (from RPM)
3dfx Voodoo 3
egcs-2.91.66

You need any more information?

I'd be thankful for any help!

best,
Nick

   If Berlin can do double buffering, then that might fix the problem.
 
 that's what we do anyway (as Tobias states above). libart draws into a
 memory visual which then gets copied with ggiCrossBlit.

That's not double buffering, that's just, well, copying.
Doublebuffering is when you have one buffer being drawn to, and
another being displayed, and then swap between them when drawing is
finished. ("Drawing" would in your case refer to the crossblit.)

 RFD: should we start taking up a collection to clone Marcus
 and Andy?

*hehe* - At least for me, I don't think the world could stand multiple
instances of me ... - well maybe if you distribute them well around the
world, but not in one place.

Moreover the default method is much more fun ;-).

CU, ANdy

GGI in the news.

2000-06-21 Thread Bryan Patrick Coleman

I was just browsing through the newest issue of Linux Magazine and saw
little write ups for two of my favorite web sites.

GGI was of course one of them and there were only five graphics web sites
although they fail to capture the essence of ggi it is still exposure!
