Yep And I also have a slow scrolling and high cpu usage with еру enabled HWA.

yours is blurred far worse than mine. but yes this is it. the blur for me is weird. all text is blurred, ui is blurred etc. but at the same time its kinda like a "depth of field" effect. for example, the current tab may be just minorly blurred, but the inactive tabs will be hugely blurred. but should i hover over one of the inactive tabs, the blur reduces as though it is now focusing on it, but then the active tab will blur to the same extent as the inactive one was. either way, heaps of blur, and apparently its not AA as it is now disabled.

When I open Opera without any tabs ( just on Speed Dial ), it takes 250MB video memory. The entire windows Aero takes around 100-130. Is it normal?

On IE9 Test Page, many tests work normally. Not the best results, but it's alpha -no problem. The "Galactica" test, doesn't even open.

Will Opera support in the future DirectWrite rendered Fonts? I'm waiting excited for Direct3D 10 support.

Overall it works surprisingly good. I'll report any issues I may find, here. Best version in years. Truly, well done!

Yes, it's blurry for me too. And AA is turned off.

Nothing to be unhappy about. It's right.

See OpenGL support in your Intel card-

http://www.intel.com/support/graphics/sb/CS-028169.htm

The above page says-

"OpenGL* 1.4 + extensions is supported by the Intel® G31, G33, Q33, and Q35 chipsets.

OpenGL* 2.0 is supported by the Intel® G35 chipset.

This applies to: Intel® 3 Series Chipsets
Intel® G31 Express Chipset
Intel® G33 Express Chipset
Intel® G35 Express Chipset
Intel® Q33 Express Chipset
Intel® Q35 Express Chipset"


OpenGL ES 2.0 is required for OpenGL backend acceleration. Your card only supports OpenGL 1.4, released in 2002 while OpenGL ES 2.0 was released in 2007 and only OpenGL 4.1-capable cards are compatible with OpenGL ES 2.0.



When I moreover looked at support for your Intel card, I found Intel DirectX compatibility-

http://www.intel.com/support/graphics/intel915g/sb/cs-011807.htm

which says:

"Intel® graphics controllers are compatible with Microsoft DirectX* 9.0. Previous versions of DirectX (7.0a, 8.0, 8.1) are also supported.

DirectX* 10 is supported only with the Intel® G35, G41, G43, & G45 Express Chipsets, Mobile Intel® GL40, GM45, GM965, & GS45 Express Chipsets, and Intel® HD Graphics when using the latest Intel® graphics drivers for Microsoft Windows Vista* or Windows 7*."

So your card atleast supports DirectX 9. Opera will be adding full HWA even for DirectX 9, so you don't need to worry.

When I first had a look at the skins feature and selected one, it wasn't applied to the whole surface. A vertical area, to the right of the tab recycle bin remained the way it was before having tried to apply the skin. I hope this is useful input.

same graphic card here, i don't think it will even be supported though it supports directX 9

but opera seems lighter here, scrolling is very smooth, no more freezes, no crash, memory usage depends on visited websites, but still doesn't free memory well, i have to do it manually everytime using some other memory software.

Because the features it has beyond those of DirectX 10 probably aren't of much if any use to speeding up web page rendering.

Thankyou very much for explaining.

Here when I use certain sites, or add a new tab, the tab bar where they have the transparency of the windows aero, flashes a blue image.

When DirectX support is ready, will we be able to choose between OpenGL and DirectX?

There is a little difference between hw acc on and off. When hw acc is on, font hinting is slightly thin than when it's off. This makes hardly reading.

Please adjust the hinting to achieve the same result!

Thanks!

On my Thinkpad T61 (C2D T7700, 4GB DDR2, Nvidia Quadro NVS140M, Driver Version 280.26, Win7 Prof 32Bit) Opera feels very slow, especially on the Speed Dial page, you can see the highlighting of the pages is way delayed.
So I'm very sorry, but i had to disable HWA. I really don't like idea to use HWA on the whole browser GUI, CPUs nowadays are fast enough and most people will have low performance GPUs in their notebooks etc...and why would you want 2 components of your notebook to produce heat instead of one?
I also tried to use Themes with HWA disabled, but it won't let me minimize Opera by clicking on the taskbar when using any of them...

Argh, apparently my Intel HD Graphics (Core i3-530) are a blocked device even though the drivers are current.

Tried the new build on a Lenovo Thinkpad T61 with an NVS 140 gfx card. Browsing is horribly slow, and combines with another issue to force me to downgrade to an earlier build, since: Opera's overall stability the last few builds has been absolutely terrible, to the point that i cannot close the browser without crashing. At all.

This means that i cannot even disable hardware acceleration because the config setting will not be saved due to crash on closing Opera.

Not working for me! Messed up my installation. Opera starts and closes immediately.

Made a fresh installation. Now opening any website restarts the PC.

Almost everything works fine, but some websites slows down the performance when scrolling, for example http://lwgame.net and http://badapps.ru/

And also the adressbar tips flickers very fast while printing something, on Opera without HW accel it doesn't flickers. Also memory usage is HUGE, I runned one test at "IE10 platform demos - Fireflies" and it eated more than 700MB of RAM.

Yes, we support open source drivers, as long as you use Mesa 7.10.3 or later. However, we haven't tested them as widely as we need to do, so there may be changes to that support in the future.

Because Opera and the driver are very buggy together. We still haven't figured out why. If you want to see the bugs, you can force it on. ;-)

We're still working on what we support or not. For now, we block very broadly, for instance by driver version or opengl version supported. Have a look in the blocklist.

2.1.9551 is the opengl version reported by the driver. The last number (9551) is basically the driver version in all those numbers. 6.14.10.9551 is the Windows XP driver version. It is pretty confusing indeed

Any plans to support legacy nvidia drivers in the future?

Not likely. They (and the cards they support) are just too buggy.

When you say DirectX support, will that mean only Direct3D, or also the other API, like DirectWrite?

We'll use DirectWrite too.

When I try to start the new snapshot the PC hangs for a few seconds, screen goes blank and then reappears with the message that the driver crashed and had to be recovered. Happens every time.

Sounds like a driver bug to me. Will test it though.

The Opera-window is completely black inside the window frame. I can not see any UI elements or web page, so I can not even disable the acceleration the way you have described.

The Opera-icon in the upper-left corner of the window frame is greyscale, not red as it should be.

Opera seems to be working properly except for these visual bugs. The mouse cursor changes when moving over different UI elements, and the window title updates as I create new tabs with keyboard shortcuts.
