hardware acceleration?

[buddyjojo]

I'm wondering if some kind of OpenGL hardware acceleration is possible. looking online I can find a few old projects like gl2gx, OpenGX and this. Now I know all of those have been abandoned and I fully expect this to already have been discussed before but I cant really find anything on this topic so I might as well try to ask here.

edit: I just realized the things I linked might do the exact opposite of what I'm looking for. Also, now that I'm thinking the stuff I linked doesn't even matter because that wold require whatever gpu driver the wii uses to be ported to the kernel?

It's not really clear what you are looking for; I would suggest checking out the capabilities of libogc or a library like this.

In both cases I don't think the kernel is involved at all because access to the video subsystem is not mediated by Mesa or any other Linux driver.

I guess I was thinking of a drm kernel driver but I'm not exactly sure on how wii gpu hardware access works (I work with phones and even then I don't know much)

But basically I am looking for any way of 3d? gpu acceleration

Those libs do seem like what I'm looking for but I guess a gx to gl wrapper would be required too

You are on the right track.
