Lombard Graphic Acceleration: Use Millions of Colors


Danny Segall notes that Lombard users who want graphic acceleration benefits of 10.1.5 need to run with millions of colors. He writes: “The reason the acceleration only seemed decent under thousands or colours was simply beacuse the driver was not enabled at all. See www.xlr8yourmac.com for further details on specifics etc. but the bottom line is that nothing is accelerated until you follow the procedure noted on that site. Having done so, everything is smooth as a baby’s bottom in millions of colours on my lombard 400. Before, it was the same as under 10.1.4 (unsurprisingly).” Thanks for the tip, Danny! We turn to our international readers to decide whether acceleration is faster if you spell “colours” with a “u.” -PK
