Martin, José, Any plans to resolve this issue?
Looks like the current, sid package still provides only the following: > 1. only one binary (kwin) is built and is linked against OpenGL > 2. two binaries are built. kwin is linked against OpenGL and kwin_gles is > linked against OpenGL ES I've took a source package of kde-window-manager, opted out a libgles2-mesa-dev from conflicts and installed it, then built Kwin via 'debian/rules build'. This way i've got a kwin_gles also, thought ldd'ing on it showed that besides libEGL dependency (which is good), it also relied on libGL (which is not good! this means some/most of GL functions were still used). When i've tried to use this produced kwin_gles binary as compozitor, i've got a slow unaccelerated performance exactly like i had when tried usual kwin (but for usual, OpenGL powered kwin it's awaited, as i have a harware only supporting OpenGL ES acceleration, while OpenGL goes throught software Mesa in my case). I've double-checked that a hardware accelerated OpenGL ES in Xorg on my setup works fine. Is it a KDE, Debian or building issue? Is there any way to fix it? > In 4.9 nothing has changed, but I plan to have some changes in 4.10 or 4.11. > We will in future default to EGL and use OpenGL on top of EGL instead of GLX > (for this there will be a mail to kde-packagers the next few days). We're on 4.11.3-2 now.

Right, especially considering the fact that last of available OpenGL ES compozitors, a Compiz got removed from Debian after the Squeeze release.
