Qt OpenGL ES implementation outside X only supports a single surface,
and everything must be drawn into it.
Unfortunately, that's not *at all* how mythtv handles its drawing.

So it's next to impossible to have a mythtv running on a low-end
platform like an Apple TV or a raspberry pi (which has no opengl
drivers available in X)
