Onething all the XF86 servers need XF86MapVidMem function. If I
remember correctly it is described in
xc/doc and xc/programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/doc
As far as DirectX stuff is concerned. Could you please consult with
John Fortin first (fortinj@ibm.net). John has done a lot of
DirectX work for XGGI. You might save a lot of time if you
comunicate
with him directly. It will also avoid duplicating some of John's
work.
Thanks.
