Re: how to turn on hardware accelerated graphics to run JBuilder 5

In general, you need to set -Dcom.apple.hwaccel=true when starting Java.

Specfically with JBuilder, you can add a file to the /lib/ext directory of JBuilder (inside JBuilder.framework). I don't think the name is important other than that it ends with .config (for example, HardwareAcceleration.config).

In the file add the line:

vmparam -Dcom.apple.hwaccel = true

Alternatively, you can run JBuilder from a terminal with:

jbuilder -J-Dcom.apple.hwaccel=true.

Either of these should get JBuilder running in the HW accelerated mode.

If you don't see a noticable increase in speed, it may be because you have run out of texture memory. Try setting your monitor to thousands of colors. This has worked well for me with windows upto 1600x1200.

Q2: Does anyone know whether hardware accelerated graphics works on a
Power Mac G4 Cube?
