Actually even some more recent Intels are nearly unusable for anything using OpenGL 2.0... I have a mobile ICH9 and performance drops when you use anything with the word 'shader' in it:D However I think that with careful coding nearly everything needed by kicad could be done with 1.4 and the usual extensions (mainly BOs). -- Lorenzo Marcantonio Logos Srl _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kicad-developers Post to : kicad-developers@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kicad-developers More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
