With that glxgears just prints: ---8<--- Error: couldn't get an RGB, Double-buffered visual --->8--- Blender fails too: ---8<--- GHOST_WindowX11.cpp:177: X11 glxChooseVisual() failed for OpenGL, verify working openGL system! X Error of failed request: BadWindow (invalid Window parameter) Major opcode of failed request: 18 (X_ChangeProperty) Resource id in failed request: 0xb6f9a020 Serial number of failed request: 29 Current serial number in output stream: 30 --->8--- But STK from SVN (the non Plib/SDL version) works, and windows over it are not covered! It just reports: ---8<--- Level 1: No doublebuffering available. --->8--- Screen captures of this STK show the 3D zone, with 2D windows over it as plain black rectangles. FPS stats are even better than before by 10 or so frames (or maybe just coincidence... the important is that speed is not a lot worse). There is also a 2D app that causes black zones in similar fashion than 3D ones (its pixels which are covered by others appear as black). It is a xterm with colour log and some settings in wm to put it below others and non focusable. The interesting part is that if the covering window is just 3D, the 3D info appears fine in the screenshots (without frames, which are 2D and appear black, like in 2D over 3D case). Maybe two bugs, or maybe all this "who can paint visible or 'screenshotable' pixel" is related somehow. Thanks for all the patience.
