Yeah, well, each to his own... I'm pretty sure we both disagree with him on that one... but I do understand where he's coming from. Even if he were interested in getting GPU HW going... it's not like he's going to get paid for the 10 or so years it'd take him to get it done... unless we can bribe him with beer donations?
So the real issue is that the information needed to get GPU HW acceleration functioning on linux is that it's a closed system - the required information hasn't been made available. Hence, we're up the creek without a paddle, as unless the state of affairs changes... or someone wins a few million in the lottery and donates it to the cause (*hint* *hint*) ... so we should settle down and enjoy Android for our HW acceleration fix/adrenaline rush?
Does that about sum it up?
