Abstract

Recent developments show that it is possible to implement drivers using 3D Graphics Hardware for the PC, which obtain performance previously found only in very expensive, specialized graphics systems. Typically, these drivers provide single application support only. This unfortunately results in the lack of having the comfort of a Windowing System and the inability to output to more than one viewing window. In this paper, an implementation to include the missing properties is discussed.
