Officially, no - it's our policy to not make such predictions, but if you want to fix it yourself in the next few months, you may promise them that. Otherwise, we'll work on it if/when we get a chance and it will get fixed when it's fixed. ___ geda-user mailing list geda-user@moria.seul.org http://www.seul.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geda-user

gEDA-user: windows and opengl
The most obvious difference between the windows version of PCB and the one built for linux is transparency. Why is this so? If I read the opengl description correctly, all windows versions should be able to deal with opengl commands even if a driver for hardware acceleration is missing. And of course every graphics card manufacturer provides accelerated drivers for windows. Wouldn't openGL "just work" in such an environment? ---<)kaimartin(>--- -- Kai-Martin Knaak, Email: k...@familieknaak.de http://pool.sks-keyservers.net:11371/pks/lookup?search=0x6C0B9F53 Still unhappy with moderation of geda-user.
