UMA Acceleration Architecture

In computing, UMA Acceleration Architecture (UXA) is the reimplementation of the EXA graphics acceleration architecture of the X.Org Server developed by Intel. Its major difference with EXA is the use of GEM, replacing Translation Table Maps.[1] In February 2009 it became clear that UXA would not be merged back into EXA.[2]

The XAA/EXA/UXA/SNA APIs are for the 2D graphics drivers inside the X server. Note, that modern software uses direct rendering.

Intel is transitioning from UXA to SNA.

Implementations

In May 2009 it was announced that Ubuntu would migrate their graphics acceleration for the Ubuntu 9.10 release to UXA.[3]

gollark: Obviously ability to edit on mobile phones is a key concern, yes.
gollark: The code on disk should be an AST which your editor can manipulate and display as you wish.
gollark: Why even have indenting? The current paradigm of code-as-text is foolish and outdated.
gollark: The latest mgollark output:> .<|endoftext|>No.<|endoftext|>I think I have a script for that.<|endoftext|>I mean, you need the todo list and add it.<|endoftext|>I can't think of any.<|endoftext|>Hmm, the problem is that you can't really pull past messages.<|endoftext|>*is tempted to have not got it and my bot bot's now message thingy*<|endoftext|>Well, this bot is in the badserver's main channel...<|endoftext|>... and?<|endoftext|><@!111569489971159040><|endoftext|>Contents<|endoftext|>Or, if you have a dedicated channel, like?<|endoftext|>Contents<|endoftext|>Contents<|endoftext|>I mean, it's *mostly* separate from that, but kind of separate from discord.<|endoftext|>What?<|endoftext|>Contents<|endoftext|>Contents<|endoftext|>Contents<|endoftext|>
gollark: It begins.
