[Mono-winforms-list] Copy rather than drawing an image to a graphics object?

[cs_eps]

Thanks for your answer!
Right, I could clear/redraw the control only partially. This would reduce,
but not completely avoid flicker and would raise the complexity of the code.

I'm still looking for copying, instead of drawing. I just saw that cairo
uses the CAIRO_OPERATOR_OVER compositing operator by default, but it could
be set to CAIRO_OPERATOR_SOURCE before drawing my buffer and then set it
back.

Is that a way? How can it be realized without modifying the
System.Drawing.Graphics class (It still should build with .NET).
