hi derek

as i mentioned in the original post, i *have* accelerated graphics on my
computer, so glxinfo tells me:

'direct rendering: Yes'

the problem i have in this specific case, that i suspect gem not to make
use of the hardware acceleration, for whatever reason. i don't know of
reliable way to check that yet, though (besides noticing that it is much
slower than i would expect).
