I'm probably missing something, but I don't see any reason an extra
fbGetDrawable would do anything at all. Can you explain why it would
work?
The code definitely looks though - a cut and paste error from earlier
in the file, I think. Can you try this patch:
http://www.freedesktop.org/~sandmann/fillfix.patch
and see if it also fixes?
Thanks,
Soren
