All your feedback is valuable and I agree with it. We welcome patches to improve the support for opengl-less CPUs or you can hire someone (us - O.S. Systems, or other software vendor) to do the work. Personally I do my best to address as many things as my free time can fit so I apologize for your turn-key experience not being as good as you wished but you can help to improve it (in one way or another). -- Otavio Salvador O.S.
