can comment how much work is needed
to make to use OpenGL-ES2 in maemo. I checked little bit Armagedonad
source code and it least looks
that there is used OpenGL 1.x style primitives in eDisplay.cpp .
OpenGL-ES2.0 != OpenGL 1.x . You can check
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://wiki.maemo.org/OpenGL-ES">http://wiki.maemo.org/OpenGL-ES</a> . To port applications that use
OpenGL-1.x API to OpenGL-ES2.0 need to use new API
that you need to use if you are porting for desktop OpenGL 3.0 .

<pre wrap=""><!---->I think qole is asking for a wrapper library, that offers a OpenGL-1.x /
OpenGL-2.0 API and translates those calls on the fly to OpenGL-ES2.0.
With a library like that it would be possible to run standard/non-mobile
OpenGL applications on Maemo without changing much of the code.

I don't know is the translation library from desktop OpenGL to
OpenGL-ES <br>
sense at all. OpenGL-ES is made as mobile optimized and translation <br>
may be heavy.<br>
<br>
OpenGL-ES1.0 is much more similar than Desktop OpenGL1.0<br>
where you can use fixed function pipeline API. In OpenGL-ES2.0<br>
you need to use programable shaders.<br>
<br>
If you have application that is made using OpenGL1.x style API<br>
it won't be so big work to translate code to OpenGL-ES1.x .<br>
<br>
There is Imagination OpenGL-ES1.x emulation libraries for Omap3/ SGX <br>
gpu (opengles-sgx-img-common, libgles1-sgx-img) . I noticed that they
are not (yet ?) part of <br>
published beta SDK. <br>
<br>
In practice what they do is that they load shaders that emulates
OpenGL-ES1.x<br>
fixed function pipeline and then API wrappers for OpenGL-ES1.x API.<br>
<br>
I tested and it looks a like they work nicely with our device. I need
to propose<br>
that they would be also included to out next SDK<br>

Sorry, if this is already clear, I had the feeling that there is some
misunderstanding...
