Hello, I'm struggling to satisfy the X11 requirements of an ancient application on modern graphics hardware.
The application runs on Digital UNIX V4 and is about 20 years old. It expects generally 8-plane pseudocolor visuals, but with one decisive exception: It requires a 4-plane overlay visual, and will take nothing else. My impression is that modern GPUs long since stopped offering 4-plane visuals. Also it seems that the X-server can only offer an overlay visual if the GPU: 1) offers a corresponding visual, and 2) supports overlays. Is this correct, or can the X-server somehow work around the lack of one or the other capability? Can anyone suggest a way of satisfying these ancient requirements? I don't mind acquiring hardware, if that will help. thanks, Rob _______________________________________________ [email protected]: X.Org support Archives: http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg Info: http://lists.x.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg Your subscription address: %(user_address)s
