As of tomorrow's rawhide [1], gnome-session will no longer treat llvmpipe as an unsupported driver. This means gnome-shell will run even on hardware without a native 3D driver, including virt guests.
There are probably bugs! I've done some quick tests on the hardware I have handy and in kvm, and things do appear to work.
Hi Ajax!
What's the plan for rather old, limited hardware? Have you personally got XO-1, XO-1.5 units to test? We'll be testing it (with some trepidation) at OLPC, but it's always better if you can see it in all its glory on your own.
We also have some hw in the pipeline that can handle OpenGLES; and that's likely to be increasingly the case for ARM laptops and tablets. AFAIK, the current stack can't use OpenGLES, correct?
cheers,
