Hi guys,
I was seeing a strange problem last night, whilst running with a SVGA
based Nano-X server the GrCopyArea was failing to copy anything.
I switched to a frame buffer based server and ran the same client code,
which seemed to work OK. Unfortunately I was then informed of the time ;-)
Can someone else confirm that SVGA is on the blink.... the demo 'slider.sh'
should use a graphic (rather than numbers) by default, so just run that.
I tried with CVS and 0.98pre7 versions, but got the same result.
The only other thing is that I'm running at 640x480, as my little laptop gets
rather confused by 800x600. Forced by adjusting scr_svga.c
