Rather than displaying the primary surface, the kernel-mode driver causes the pixels of the primary surface to be remapped on the graphics processor using a selected lookup table (LUT) so as to generate a remapped surface which stored in memory locations allocated for the remapped surface by the user-mode driver. Then, the remapped surface is displayed.
