OpenGL acceleration and 2D and 3D support

I'd really like to see this implemented as well

I'd like to see this as well since it seems to be the reason why I can't color calibrate my DisplayLink monitor http://www.displaylink.org/forum/showthread.php?t=531

I have 2 USB monitors hooked up to my macbook and expose is just a joke. Additionally, I have a wireless usb transmitter hooked up to my HDTV and I am forced to boot into windows in order to get the advertised "smooth video at 720p", which is also a joke using the mac drivers.

When is this going to be done? Are there any plans to open source the Mac OS X driver to allow the community to add OpenGL support?

+1 for acceleration on MacOS.

I would also greatly appreciate support for OpenGL acceleration. I require colour calibration of my second monitor as I am a designer and colour accuracy is very important to me.

Video is not smooth enough. The 1.6 beta 4 driver is out and still no hardware acceleration? Sad panda.

I'm using a Macbook Pro with two brand new Dell U2410s side by side. One is hooked up through the Mac's Displayport, the other to a Mac USB port using a Diamond BVU195 adapter and the Displaylink Mac 1.6 beta driver. The graphics card is set to "better graphics" in the Energy Saver preferences panel.

At first I hooked up the display using the Diamond "straight": DVI cable from the monitor to the Diamond's built-in DVI input, output to USB on the Mac.

This caused the display to turn slightly blue, and it seemed to get bluer and bluer over the 2 hours I used it that way. Eventually whites became almost sky blue -- basically unusable. Plus I could not calibrate the monitor's color. I freaked out and found this forum, so I know why I can't calibrate. (Displaylink, please fix this!!!)

Then I hooked up the Diamond to its included DVI to VGA adapter and used a VGA cable from the monitor. Surprisingly, this seems to have solved the problem. Of course I still can't calibrate the monitor, but at least the color balance is more or less normal.

+1 for sure.. on Open GL.... would love that... for sure..

Color and Open GL would be IDEAL. for sure.. I would take just OPEN GL if I had to..
