That's good to hear. Dave Schmenk (the developer) does mention that you only get hardware acceleration at 15 or 16bpp in the FAQ. Anything else, he states, will fall back to the software renderer. Of course segfaults don't seem like a good fallback scheme! :) But, I concur, it's a great step in the right direction and now maybe some of the CAD/FEA folks that I depend on for a lot of my graphics-oriented software will start considering Linux as a good platform to target. Thanks for the reply Steve. Gary
