[Openchrome-users] 2D using OpenGL ?

Dear List,

I asked a while ago about 3D support for chrome9.  Well,
there is not any, which is ok for me because I mainly need
2D acceleration.  For example, mplayer works fine.

The problem is that, for example adobe's flash-player,
uses for 2D acceleration only the OpenGL graphics library
(also some other programs, like the terminal window, are sluggish).
For more info, check:

Is there any way to get OpenGL working in 2D mode only?

Cheers,

Sampsa
