<p>
As of September 2008, the driver supports smooth/flat shaded triangle rendering
with Z testing and simple texture mapping.
Simple demos like gears run successfully.
To test texture mapping, try progs/demos/texcyl (press right mouse button for
rendering options).

<p>
Runtime/dynamic code generation is being done for per-fragment
operations (Z test, blend, etc) and for fragment programs (though only a
few opcodes are implemented now).
As of October 2008, the driver runs quite a few OpenGL demos.
Features that work include:
</p>
<ul>
<li>Point/line/triangle rendering, glDrawPixels
<li>2D texture maps with nearest/linear/mipmap filtering
<li>NPOT textures
<li>Cube maps, to some extent
<li>Dynamic SPU code generation for fragment shaders, but not complete
<li>Dynamic SPU code generation for fragment ops (blend, Z-test, etc), but not complete
</ul>
<p>
In general, however, the driver is rather slow because all vertex
transformation is being done by an interpreter running on the PPU.
