I'd been considering it for a while, but in the end, all the issues it
presented made me decide it wasn't worth merging and was never really
worth keeping: it was a neat proof of concept but of little actual use,
especially now everyone either has an OK GPU or would want to stick to
8-bit rendering anyway (sorry L-Havoc).
However, both it and my merge work are preserved in git history :)
16 and 32 bit rendering are disabled at the moment because there's a
weird segfault I need to fix, but the 8-bit dynamic lights are doing
weird things (for x11, too) when updating the light maps.
It turns out the dd and dib "driver" code is very specific to the
software renderer. This does not fix the segfault on changing video
mode, but I do know where the problem lies: the window is being
destroyed and recreated without recreating the buffers. I suspect a
clean solution to this will allow for window resizing in X as well.
