I've got a beagle board with debian running on it now, i'll test the
video output when im back to germany. Judgeing what i've seen at
LinuxTag, the 2D performance is great even on 1280x720 (they had no
accelerated X running).
So using the OMAP3530 and leaving the 3D stuff unused seems to be an
option.
