Gernlinden, Gaming, OpenCL, & OpenGL 3.2

[nanonyme]

R3xx cards have had OSS 3D for years now (although it's only up to OpenGL 1.3 IIRC). The only question should be if Google Earth requires OpenGL 2.0+ or not.

I don't think it does... Also the card might be in a pretty good shape at that point. Namely VBO support might be getting in and DRI2 should definitely be in at that point. Hmm, I was under the impression r300 was at OpenGL 1.4 and nearing 1.5. The jump from 1.5 to 2.0 is *big* though. Probably won't happen before Gallium3D.

I have just tested Google Earth 5.x with my Ati 9600XT under Ubuntu 9.04 with default radeon oss drivers... it seems it's working perfectly.... I guess it will work even better with Ubuntu 9.10
