nanogui: Thread: demos/mwin/mine trouble under Minix

Hi all,

I have ported Microwindows to Minix and it appears that all Demos run fine
but mwin/mine.
When I run it it comes up with a screen that shows the mine window, but it
is all gray.  When
I then click a spot on the board and the counter starts I get the board
being displayed, but it
then gets wiped to gray again every second.  Anyone know what is going on
here?

The Makefile I am using to build the drivers is below.

Thanks,

Michael Temari

Did you port it to Minix 16 bit or Minix 32 bit?

Standard Minix 2.0.3 which has a couple new ioctl's that allow doing BIOS
calls and setting up a descriptor to access Video Memory.  If it isn't too
big already you probably would be able to do anything useful with it.  If it
becomes a server instead of
being compiled into the program then it would probably work under 16 bit
also.
