I had to set this flag in order to get the BS Contact VRML/X3D software =

to work (see http://bitmanagement.de/products/bs_contact_vrml.en.html). =

This software can either run in 'normal mode' or in 'software rendering' =

mode. In normal mode it checks for the flag PFD_GENERIC_ACCELERATED and =

in software rendering mode it checks for the PFD_GENERIC_FORMAT flag. =

Without my patch the software wont run with Chromium.

Maybe a better solution might be to include the PFD_GENERIC_ACCELERATED =

flag instead? According to [2] this flag indicates sort of a hybrid =

driver which might better suit Chromium.
