RE: How I can do Double Buffer without OpenGL Ext?

[Shawn Bakhtiar <shashaness hotmail com>]

Well in the good old days, when we did have all these fancy smancy libraries ( :P ) we use to double buffer 
graphics by drawing to an off screen bitmap or any compatible context (to that of the screen) and then simply 
copy that context to the screen.

I.E.

1) Create a new GtkBitmap,
2) Draw everything to the bitmap
3) copy the bits to screen
