Hi all, just a quick heads up. on meego we have the historic problem of compositing only properly working with xrender. the problem is becoming worse since there seem to be some repainting issues now, about argb windows never updating their contents (that's the reason of complaints about the connman applet not working) today an old qt4.8 related problem has been resolved on the Mer packages and we have plasma active booting correctly on the x86 mer image. it for sure still has some issues and things that don't work, but nothing that can't be resolved with a bit of work, so i must say to everybody congrats and that i'm impressed with the progress of Mer. i tried to enable opengl compositing for kwin and sure enough it's working perfectly and noticeably faster (i guess also kwin cpu usage during animations came down quite a bit as well) So, that's even another argument to start to focus on Mer for the x86 image.
