Hi,
You might want to send WebSpace specific questions like this one directly
to: [email protected]

The interface between WebSpace and the ZX is our implementation of OpenGL.
It drives the ZX hardware directly and at close to rated performance.

Please let us know (using [email protected] please) some additional info
like what version of Solaris you're running and what VRML scenes you're
viewing. This is important because while the ZX is very fast for most
geometry, it does not accelerate, for example, texture mapping.
