[webkit-qt] [HELP] Doing a build of QtWebKit with WebGL enabled

Thanks a lot guys!

Indeed I was using the *qtwebkit repo* on gitorious, not the *webkit one* on
gitorious.
And if I remember correctly from my last build, a part from passing*--3d-canvas
*, to enable QGV and AC I just need to do it* from the* *Menu of the
QtTestBrowser*. Right?

PS What *--3d-rendering* stands for? I don't really understand what that
flags delivers and I couldn't find any README about it (me blind?).

Thanks a lot
