The issue here is actually that it's a bit muddy. AMD sold off the embedded GPU unit to Qualcomm, although Qualcomm (msm boards) use a z180/z430 I believe, although I'm not entirely sure what the changes are, and the Freescale mx51 and mx53 use z160/z430 (mx51 is clocked at 133mhz, mx53 is clocked at 200mhz) The mx6 will be using a Vivante GPU. -- Best Regards, Steev Steev Klimaszewski <[email protected]> Senior Software Engineer, Genesi USA, Inc. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
