: I need to use nano-X displaying on X server (XF86_SVGA) because this is
: the only driver supporting 256 colors on CL-GD6235 graphics card.
:
: It runs well if nano-X is started in normal X env. - with window manager -
: I mean it displays empty frame (not even filled with default black nano-X
: background), but starts updating, when it receives the focus (mouse in).
I would look at the drivers/scr_x11.c code; there's some strange
stuff in there in the setup code. You might turn on some debug output,
and printf the events you receive.
: As I understand
: porting nano-X application to bare X is non trivial ?
Actually, it should be quite straight forward to get a Nano-X program
to run directly on Xlib... Grxxx ->Xxxx macro library might
do the trick.

Greg
