There is a lot of discussion about lower performance of OpenGL inside Windows Vista. http://www.opengl.org/discussion_boards/cgi_directory/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic;f=12;t=000001 One has to wonder what specification Vista will use to full render effects such as transparent windows and Avalon (very similar to Project Looking Glass aond Metisse). Once Fedora will get the modular X.org, it will be interesting to see how it will be possible to generate interesting effect by only using OpenGL from software rendering. -- _______________________________________________ Get your free email from http://mymail.jp.popstarmail.org -- Fedora-marketing-list mailing list Fedora-marketing-list@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-marketing-list
