[Xorg] Xfbdev acceleration without offscreen pixmaps?

[Michael Frey]

ok,

Excuse my ignorance, but I am still a bit confused.  The line of code I 
referred to earlier
	(pPixmap = kaaGetOffscreenPixmap (pDrawable, &xoff, &yoff)) &&
in kaa.c seems to always return NULL and therefore will never call the 
PrepareSolid as well as the Solid functions defined by my driver.  Or 
is this a bug in the init of my driver not filling out the structures 
properly?
