Indeed, it would be preferrable to use HW acceleration, that was only a very quick hack. Since the user interface latency is usually not X-related, the perfomance loss of additional copy does not make the UI noticably less unresponsive. But ofcourse, this xrandr implementation: http://lemody.blogspot.com/2005/11/xrandr-o-2.html Is much more cool :) Any chances for a unofficial X binary for hackers with this?-) _______________________________________________ maemo-developers mailing list [email protected] https://maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-developers
