Hi Tuomas,

I was also interested to see if Nokia has accelerated the X.Org

X.Org server sources (nor a video driver) in the release. I understand
that X server isn't needed for the SDK but neither would be the kernel.

Any plans on releasing the X.Org sources (or actually the video driver)?
It would be interesting to test Maemo stuff with accelerated X server on
existing OMAP3 hardware, like the Beagle Board.

All this is still in development. The plan is to publish the open
components with the beta SDK.

Some of the acceleration graphics code go under components maintained by
Maemo SW in the Kernel and Xorg. We plan to open those.

Many others are directly tied to PowerVR and they come as binaries only.
Decisions on their licensing depend on Imagination, who owns the technology.

By the way, it is also our interest that the community can put their
hands on Maemo 5 using OMAP3 hardware available. Ideas and help are welcome.


Is xserver in Maemo 5 (Nokia N900 OMAP 3) using hardware acceleration (SGX)? I cannot find confirmation on that anywhere. I found inforamtion that accelerated user interface on omap 3 can be done using qt embedded or clutter and not xserver. Where can I find more on that topic?
