Who's gonna get 3D working this weekend for 10k? - Raspberry Pi Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

"Today, Broadcom is releasing the full source of the OpenGL ES 1.1 and 2.0 driver stack for the Broadcom VideoCore® IV 3D graphics subsystem used in the BCM21553 3G integrated baseband SoC. VideoCore IV is used in many Broadcom products, including the BCM2835 application processor, which runs the popular Raspberry Pi microcomputer."

Has Kaiser an ATI Chip, integrated?

according to this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=331750
It has, but coreplayer which is compliant with ATI chips doesn't detect it ?

interesting quote about some devices with qualcom..

On the featured demo you will see the Android OS running on a reference device based on the Qualcomm MSM7200 with a 300Mhz processor.
The chipset is gaining popularity with PocketPC manufacturers - it was also in the root of the HTC user upheaval for some reportedly missing video drivers. The Android OS however benefits from the Qualcomm integrated 2D/3D accelerator in a way that the disgruntled HTC users could only wish for - it's playing a Quake demo at 30 fps.
it would be possible to ripp off the drivers from the new devices and somehow put them on htc's that lack such drivers?
Isn't android linux based?
Yes; I doubt such portability of drivers is feasible.

!Diamond and GPU!

Hi, so, after about 3.5 months of researching HTC Diamond, does anybody know what is with Diamond GPU? Some info? Like how many VRAM has it? I read somewhre that Diamond has 16MB VRAM, on other site that Diamond has 64 MB VRAM. And the second, why is Diamond GPU so "bad"? theoretically, it must be fast, but games like Quake can run only about 4 FPS, while VGA Dell Axim x50v, about 4 years old PPC can run it about 25 FPS? Yes, I know, Axim has 2700G from Intel, BUT, 7201A chipset is brand new, so I dont believe that its GPU is so bad.
do those older PPC games run on a GPU? or right off of the phones CPU?
I remember when I ran rocket elite on my easio e125 it ran wonderfully. I think that had a mips 150mhz in it. On my next device, the toshiba e330 with a 208mhz cpu it ran WAY worse. Maybe it was the ram, or cpu, I dont know, but I know some of the games written for older devices seem to run terribly on the newer ones.
Hmm, one example - Quake 3 - Diamond 0-4 FPS, Axim x50v 25-30 FPS - technology - open GL ES. Diamond should have Open GL ES 1.1 HW Accelerated.

New UI at the Toshiba TG01

Where i can get it?
This OpenGL ES 2.0 demo is running on a Toshiba TG01 phone, which uses Qualcomm's powerful Snapdragon processor with full integrated multimedia hardware acceleration including Qualcomms Adreno 200 graphics core.

you cant. end of topic.
is it a game or really an UI? hey to be honest...that's maybe the worsest usability I have ever seen...

[Q] Galaxy Tab P1010 WIFI - SoC, Toolchain and GPU drivers

Hi,
I'm new to Android development, I own an old GT-P1010 tablet and would like to experiment with building a newer kernel and Android stack for it.
The tablet has a Cortex A8 CPU, however it usually comes integrated into an SoC which remains unknown to me. Any ideas on what it might be?
What toolchain (gcc-based) should I use to build a stack such as CM9 or AOSP?
Finally, do you guys know what GPU the P1010 has integrated? Is it the Adreno 200? Is there a kernel driver/patches out there for the said GPU and corresponding to the userspace GL|ES libraries?
Cheers,

A bit of investigation tells that's based on a TI's OMAP3 SoC and has a PowerVR SGX530 for 3D h/w acceleration.
