I'm looking for texts for an intro graphics course at the senior
undergraduate, first year graduate level. The students are reasonably
sophisticated with C and Unix, and have a good mathematics background.

We run our courses on color Sun Sparcstations, and  I was hoping to
find a text that had course materials (demos, assignments, projects)
that would run easily in this environment, hopefully on top of X11. I
was a bit surprised that in a quick scan, most of what I see are either
quite generic or oriented to PC/Mac hardware. I also didn't see much in
the way of demos available by ftp or other machine readable format.

Any text recommendations would be appreciated. If anyone has developed
or adapted materials to the SS1 environments, I would love to hear
about it.
