The code in cairo_egl_device_create() is not related to any surface that
you will be using for rendering. Its only purpose is to allow us to make a
valid surface current in order to perform the device initialization.

It shouldn't make a difference in this case: cairo surfaces that are
created by cairo_gl_surface_create() are backed by textures, not by any
type of EGL surface.

I don't know what you are trying to achieve, so this may be way off
base, but is CAIRO_CONTENT_ALPHA what you want here? Perhaps you need
CAIRO_CONTENT_COLOR_ALPHA? Even if you actually need
CAIRO_CONTENT_ALPHA, it's worth trying out a simpler example first to
get a better feeling of what may be wrong.

Also are you sure you are actually painting correctly to the gl surface?

What happens if instead of a gl surface you use, e.g., an image surface?
Do you get any output then?

Thanks,
