New Abstract:
OpenOffice.org 2.0.2 supports a hardware acceleration for rendering of presentations in Impress. An additional component is needed to enable the platform specific acceleration. Furthermore, graphic card drivers are 3rd-party products, which OpenOffice.org does not have any influence on. Additionally, there is a potential for bugs in those drivers, which can be unveiled by using OpenOffice.org. Since such problems can make OpenOffice.org presentations potentially unusable, we introduce an option which allows the user to disable the hardware acceleration support.

Abstract:
OpenOffice.org 2.0.2 features a hardware acceleration for rendering of presentations in Impress. DirectX is used on Windows; the option for a equivalent technology on Unix is also supported). However, graphic card drivers are 3rd-party products, which OpenOffice.org does not have any influence on. Additionally, there is a potential for bugs in those drivers, which can be unveiled by using OpenOffice.org. Since such problems can make OpenOffice.org presentations potentially unusable, we introduce an option which allows the user to disable the hardware acceleration support.
