Default 2D GPU acceleration for Linux Reader 8 (whenit will be available)?

It would be nice if Adobe Linux Reader 8 could use "2D GPU Acceleration" in Linux too. It could be done using OpenGL driver. Nvidia Linux Geforce driver has support for shader technology in Linux too. ATI also uses its own accelerated OpenGL library in Linux.

Will Adobe make Linux Reader 8 with 2D GPU acceleration?

Hi Zbigniew,

Unfortunately, this is not planned for Linux Reader 8.

What a pity. Adobe reader is very slow even on fast machines when compared to open alternatives. 2D GPU acceleration could give a chance to Adobe Reader to work at least equally fast as open source viewers.
However thanks for reply.
