-This list shows which Hardware Accelerated Graphics APIs currently
-supported by Qt.
+    Qt for Embedded Linux includes its own windowing system, QWS. QWS was
+    designed in 1999, well before graphics acceleration was available for
+    embedded devices. It does a great job providing a lightweight window
+    manager including all the expected functionality such as arbitrary
+    windows that can be moved, resized, minimized, etc. Getting QWS to work
+    with GPUs is very challenging, particularly with OpenGL and OpenVG
+    because there is no standard way in Linux to share textures across
+    processes. Some silicon vendors provide private APIs to allow texture
+    sharing, others do not. These limitations are documented under the
+    sections describing each type of accelerated hardware APIs. The simplest
+    most generic support for accelerated graphics is a full screen single
+    process single window.

+        \o X11 with an accelerated X11 driver provided by the silicon
+        vendor. Like QWS, this allows arbitrary windows with multiple
+        processes drawing on the screen. Our experience is that there is
+        some overhead from X11 which will adversely affect framerates.
+        Additionally, our experience is that the drivers from silicon
+        vendors are still maturing.

-\section1 Hardware Acceleration
-
-When designing applications for embedded devices the choice often stands
-between graphics effects and performance. On most devices, you cannot have
-both simply because the hardware needed for such operations just is not
-there. Still a growing number of devices use hardware dedicated to graphics
-operations to improve performance. 
-
-Using graphics acceleration hardware is more power efficient than using the
-CPU. The reason for this is that the CPU might require a clock speed that
-is up to 20 times higher than the GPU, achieving the same results. E.g. a
-typical hardware accelerated mobile graphics unit can rasterize one or two
-bilinear texture fetches in one cycle, while a software implementation
-takes easily more than 20 cycles. Graphics hardware generally have a much
-lower clock speed and memory bandwidth and different level of acceleration
-than desktop GPUs. One example is that many GPUs leave out transformation
-and lighting from the graphics pipeline and only implements rasterization.
-
-So the key to write good applications for devices is therefore to limit the
-wow factor down to what the target hardware can handle, and to take
-advantage of any graphics dedicated hardware. Qt provides several ways to
-both render advanced effects on the screen and speed up your application
-using hardware accelerated graphics.
-

-
-\section2 Qt for Embedded Graphics pipeline
-
-Qt uses QPainter for all graphics operations. By using the same API
-regardless of platform, the code can be reused on different devices.
-QPainter use different paint engines implemented in the QPaintEngine API to
-do the actual painting.
-
-The QPaintEngine API provides paint engines for each window system and
-painting framework supported by Qt. In regards to Qt for Embedded, this
-also includes implementations for OpenGL ES versions 1.1 and 2.0, as well
-as OpenVG and DirectFB(Embedded Linux only).
-
-By using one of these paint engines, you will be able to improve the
-graphics performance of your Qt application. However, if the graphics
-operations used are not supported, this might as well be a trap, slowing
-down your application significantly. This all depends on what kind of
-graphics operations that are supported by the target devices hardware
-configuration.
-
-\image platformHWAcc.png
-
-The paint engine will direct all graphics operations supported by the
-devices hardware to the GPU, and from there they are sent to the
-framebuffer. Unsupported graphics operations falls back to the
-QRasterPaintEngine and are handled by the CPU before sent to the
-framebuffer. In the end, the operating system sends the paint updates off
-to the screen/display. The fallback operation is quite expensive in regards
-to memory consumption, and should be avoided.
-
-\section2 Hardware configuration requirements
-
-Before implementing any application using hardware acceleration, it is wise
-to get an overview of what kind of hardware accelerated graphics operations
-that are available for the target device. 
-
-\note On devices with no hardware acceleration, Qt will use
-QRasterPaintEngine, which handles the acceleration using software. On
-devices supporting OpenGL ES, OpenVG or DirectFB(not supported by Windows
-CE), Qt will use the
-respective paint engines to accelerate painting. However, hardware
-configurations that only support a limited set of hardware acceleration
-features, might slow the application graphics down rather than speeding it
-up when using unsupported operations that must fall back to the raster
-engine.
-
-\section3 Different architectures
-
-Based on the architecture used in a device we can make a recommendation on
-which hardware acceleration techniques to use. There are mainly two
-different architectures on embedded devices. These are devices with a
-Unified Memory Architecture (UMA), and devices with dedicated graphics
-memory. Generally, high-end devices will have dedicated graphics memory.
-Low-end devices will just use system memory, sometimes reserving a memory
-region and sometimes not.
-
-In addition to this, we can categorize the devices into five types based on

+	\section1 Hardware Acceleration
+	
+	When designing applications for embedded devices there is often a
+	compromise between graphics effects and performance. On most
+	devices, you cannot have both simply because the hardware needed
+	for such operations just is not there. With a growing number of
+	devices that use hardware dedicated to graphics operations there is
+	less need to compromise.
+	
+	In addition to enabling dynamic graphics effects, there are two
+	other benefits to using graphics acceleration. One is that graphics
+	acceleration hardware is more power efficient than using the CPU.
+	The reason for this is that the CPU might require a clock speed
+	that is up to 20 times higher than the GPU, achieving the same
+	results. E.g. a typical hardware accelerated mobile graphics unit
+	can rasterize one or two bilinear texture fetches in one cycle,
+	while a software implementation takes easily more than 20 cycles.
+	Typical \e {System-on-a-chip} (SoC) graphics hardware generally have
+	a much lower clock speed and memory bandwidth, and different level
+	of acceleration than desktop GPUs. One example is that many GPUs
+	leave out transformation and lighting from the graphics pipeline
+	and only implements rasterization.
+	
+	Another reason to use a GPU is to offload the main CPU, either for
+	power saving or to perform other operations in parallel. Often
+	drawing speed with a GPU is not that much faster than a CPU but
+	the clear benefit of using the GPU is to free up the CPU to perform
+	other tasks which can be used to create a more responsive use
+	experience.
+	
+	The key to writing good applications for devices is therefore to
+	limit the wow factor down to what the target hardware can handle,
+	and to take advantage of any graphics dedicated hardware. Qt
