Thank you ;)

// I guess this is want you meant
beginEditCP( geo, Geometry::VboFieldMask );
        geo->setVbo(true);
endEditCP( geo, Geometry::VboFieldMask );

I found with geo->getVbo() you are able to get want you've
set with geo->setVbo()... but not more? 
It's not saying OpenSG is actually using VBO rendering...
I suppose so due to geo->getVbo() returns true even with no support for
VBO-extension.

(btw: setVbo() is declared in GeometryBase Header but not defined in
GeometryBase.cpp)

A workaround solution for my problem would be:
1.) Traverse the graph
      Found geometry core
        Add vertex positions to my own array

2.) Register VBO to CUDA
3.) Render using OpenGL directly (Is this a problem? What's to consider?)


Regards,
Sven
