Bummer.  Anyway, I might try taking your stuff and see if I can use it for 
Win32.

I did notice one problem in using your modifications to the CMakefile.txt. 

First, do you use texture maps?  My guess is no, since the problem seems to be 
in vtkOpenGLTexture.cxx.  There are a few "#ifdef __APPLE__"'s in there and they 
all rely on the Quartz stuff, not the X stuff.

If we are relying on X stuff, should __APPLE__ be defined?  I think it should 
be, but in this case, we should not be keying on the __APPLE__ but on 
VTK_USE_QUARTZ in the vtkToolkits.h file.  I changed vtkOpenGLTexture.cxx and it 
now works fine.

Yves: are you listening?  I know you did a lot of the work on this, would this 
be a major problem?


I did a grep, and this is what I got:
