When talking about fast frame buffer access, is there someone "fixing" the
XFree86 code to use extra video memory for fast multibuffering or at least
for caching of _large_ pixmaps?
[The reason I want this is because I use the Mesa OpenGL-like library for
an application drawing a quite simple view (mostly largeish flat shaded
polygons). The fix above would allow accelerated drawing in double buffer
mode, currently I have to use single buffer mode (with colormap animation)
for speed.]
