Re: [Chromium-users] Chromium on OSX?

[Benjamin K. <be...@co...>]

hi Alan

thanks for your reply
my guess is that then Chromium doesn't make use of the PBuffer at all...

just a n00b question then, how does Chromium work under OSX?
does PBuffers ever gets called?

i faked a copy of all the calls in opengl_stub/cgl.c but returning 0  
just to get crappfaker to launch correctly and not terminating on  
symbol errors.
and crappfaker manages to launch by with a 0,0 dimension app that just  
hangs.

are my edits causing this error?
if so... why? i thought that PBuffers where never used.

thanks lots
