-/**
- * SECTION:MetaTextureTower
- * @short_description: mipmap emulation by creation of scaled down images
- *
- * A #MetaTextureTower is used to get good looking scaled down images when
- * we can't use the GL drivers mipmap support. There are two separate reasons
- *
- *  - Some cards (including radeon cards <= r5xx) only support
- *    TEXTURE_RECTANGLE_ARB and not NPOT textures. Rectangular textures
- *    are defined not to support mipmapping.
- *  - Even when NPOT textures are available, the combination of NPOT
- *    textures, texture_from_pixmap, and mipmapping doesn't typically
- *    work, since the X server doesn't allocate pixmaps in the right
- *    layout for mipmapping.
- *
- * So, what we do is create the "mipmap" levels ourselves by successive
- * power-of-two scaledowns, and when rendering pick the single texture
- * that best matches the scale we are rendering at. (Since we aren't
- * typically using perspective transforms, we'll frequently have a single
- * scale for the entire texture.)
