It may be the reason given, but it still isn't a valid reason because it simply isn't true. It may be a simplifiaction of 'rgb overlays cannot be relied upon to be supported by the hardware'. That is true, some hardware only supports YUV. RGB565 certainly is possible an indeed exists on the XO-1. I'm using it to run graphics scaled. I would love to see the same mechanism on the 1.5. From the snooping I've done so far XO-1.5's have been reporting no adapters present or cannot open display. I'm guessing I have yet to encounter one with drivers advanced enough to allow XV. _______________________________________________ Devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel
