Do you have another idea to keep the current (very reasonable) performance without hw accel and implementing hw accel support (most probably with opengl)? I agree that is not a trivial problem to solve. There are worse in the field :D for example: code for opengl supporting efficiently both triangle streaming gpu (Intel/ATI/NVidia) *and* tile renderers (PowerVR): if you think about it these are almost complementar way to handle rendering:P That and most open source drivers tends to have better performance in the 2d graphics path... -- Lorenzo Marcantonio Logos Srl _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kicad-developers Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kicad-developers More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
