Pete - I had to comment out support for VNC server when porting
the 0.93 blit code. The old code in vncserver.c needs to be
changed to call the new-style blit routines in order to make
this work. I didn't have a copy of libvncserver that I could compile
and link nano-X with without errors. If you could get something
at least compiling and linking, I can help getting the blits re-wired.
The blit routines are defined in device.h:: struct SCREENDEVICE. Which
one to call will depend on your hardware pixel format and the source
pixel format.
Regards,
Greg
