[maemo-developers] fremantle opengl errors

[From: Kate Alhola]

If you like to play, study and test OpenGL-ES 2.0 in x86, you can download
SDK from Imagination technologies site www.imtec.com . There is
"Khronos OpenGL ES 2.0 SDKs for POWERVR SGX"  with Linux PC emulation.
http://www.imgtec.com/powervr/insider/sdk/KhronosOpenGLES2xSGX.asp
The page needs registration but then you can download the SDK.
There is also many good demos and tutorials.

I have tried some of the demos with real device also ....

I think that it is very usefull to play around with this kit. OpenGL-ES
2.0 differs
a lot from previous ones as it differs also from Desktop OpenGL 1.x or 2.x .
Most important diference is that it does not have much left in
traditional API
and all is replaced with Programmable Pipeline/ Programable shaders.
In Desktop OpenGL 2.0 you have all of these but you also have
traditional API.
