Hello all,

I have the following problem when using the APPCULLDRAW multiprocessing
mode (i.e. no fork) :

The first frame shows up OK, but then all lighting disappears,
and the frame stats are drawn in an incomplete manner: the colored
bars appear correctly and are updated for each frame, but all the
text disappears.

I only discovered this recently since I was using the APP_CULLDRAW
multiproc. mode until very recently., and everything works in
that other mode. I don;t quite understand what
could cause this since I amm now using the single process mode (having
problems going the other way would not surprise me so much!).

Any ideas about where to look ? I don't even know where to start:
my scene is allocated using pfMallocs, all channels, pipes etc
belong to a shared memory structure (but why should it matter
when I only have one process ?)...

This is Performer 2.0 on IRIX 5.3.
