The only one which fits that bill (implements SwapBuffersWithDamage and is known to not always send infinite damage) is PowerVR. However, the PVR implementations are third-party, not distributed by Imagination themselves, so I think breaking those is completely fine: we're not going to break anything by upgrading that no-one can fix. Even then, the client winsys implementation on PowerVR can be implemented by external modules, as it provides an API that lets you compile externally, even when you don't have the DDK source.</pre> </div> <hr> You are receiving this mail because: <ul> <li>You are the assignee for the bug.</li> </ul> </body> </html>
