New programs added to repo

[cattail]

I built SDL which is needed for PyGame. SDL test are OK except those using OpenGL as current Xorg built without OpenGL. Do you need OpenGL?

I want to try Love2D 0.8.0 in PiCore,but it need OpenGL, I don't know if raspberry Pi had a OpenGL ES 2.0 can support  it......

[curaga]

No, it can't support desktop GL.

No, it can't support desktop GL.

It does support GL, just install MesaLib.tcz Also SDL and most common SDL components already in the repo.

See SDL test programs running:

Are you sure those aren't GLES? Can you show the output of glxinfo/eglinfo?

The other option is that it's using software rendering, which certainly works, but it would be dog slow - I don't think cattail would like to program for that.

Right, at the moment no hw accelerated Xorg driver is available on the Pi. There is something experimental but far from really usable solution:

An alternative is to use VideoCore firmware to access hw accelerated GL, but as far as I know only OpenELEC is using it for video playback.

I don't have glxinfo. eglinfo:

Anyhow, even an accelerated driver woudn't convert Pi to a Playstation.

I thought it could run Q3? That's way better than PS1

Added gtk version of NetSurf It is a small, fast WEB browser with much better HTML compatibility than Dillo3.

Look for netsurf-gtk.tcz
