gem2pdp: if i put the 'Gem window' in the back the pdp output window doesn't 'redraw': it draws the next image on top of what was there... (like buffer=1 in Gem)
i guess it depends on your X server and graphic card, i've tried this ( even iconified Gem's output ) and it works fine with XFree 4.1 on a Trident Cyberblade. btw, it's true, the number of buffers is temporarily set to 1 for capturing the frame then restored to its initial value, otherwise the pixels capture doesn't work.
pdp-pidip:
Is there a way to tell pdp_xv to launch an x window with no borders at screen position x y ? (equivalent to the 'offset x y' and 'border 1/0' messages one can pass to 'Gemwin')
not yet, but definitely to be done ( hello, tom )
cheers,
