- Hmm, I just installed an XS upgrade to my Indigo [including the
- 4.0.2 upgrade] and I'm seeing some strange behaviour. It appears as
- if, instead of doing regular hidden surface removal, the graphics
- library is doing screen door transparency. [Since I don't have any
- alpha bitplanes].
-
- Running the same code [after recompile of course] on our 380 VGX or
- a 4/35 PI works as expected. Any ideas? I'm fairly new to gl
- programming so don't be too hard on me.

- Thanks,
