If you are thinking about a SGX545 user....I am one of them(albeit not so
good at driver development). These atom chips are really good if paired up
with the graphics core and linux. I will buildthe kernel today and inform
you what happens. Even if you need hardware, I can send mine ;-).
Thanks,
Alif
