What do all those +names actually mean (cairo? Mesa? Glucose? UXA? GEM?). How can an +application designer hope to debug a graphics performance problem? +This talk provides a simple overview of the 2D and 3D graphics stacks +for Linux with clear diagrams, and several recipes for debugging +graphics performance problems at several layers. We conclude with an +overview of upcoming changes to the graphics stack, (in particular, +several different attempts to unify the 2D and 3D stacks). + +Presented at [linux.conf.au 2009](http://linux.conf.au) in Hobart, +Tasmania, Australia on 2009-01-21. + +# [X Acceleration that Finally Works](lca_2008) + +Meaningful hardware acceleration within the X Window System is +becoming a reality. We present the recent state of the art of 2D +accelerated rendering with the Intel 965 graphics device showing +performance gains up to 900 times faster than software rendering. + +Co-presented with Eric Anholt at [linux.conf.au +2008](http://linux.conf.au) in Melbourne, Australia on 2008-01-30. + +# [Co-maintaining cairo: cool community, cool code](guadec_2007) + +A retrospective on the development of the cairo code and community +over its 5 year history.
