Hello,

just a quick update about this issue. We have manage to make it work with 
complete hw support. We had to tweek different flags and use crosswalks lastest 
version in "master" to make it work.

Also as a side note, using Phonegap wrappern it would not provide hw 
acceleration, we had to completely port the application to crosswalk to make it 
work.

Best regards,

Manuel.
