Description (last modified by Martin Decky)

On arm32, mips32 and ppc32, the compositor service runs, but no application windows are shown. This can be either caused by a bug in the compositor itself, some of the GUI-related libraries or possibly in the libsoftfloat library. On the other hand, sparc64 works fine.

The viability and possibility to replace floating point arithmetic with simpler and faster fixed point arithmetic (or even plain integer arithmetic) in the GUI-related libraries should be also investigated.
