Depends... if by that you mean on the PC, you compiled with --disable-gl, then itll use software fallbacks for everything... dead slow, even on beagle (1 frame, every 5seconds?)
But if you just remove that SDL_OPENGL flag in that one place, then its a different matter. It will switch to software based SDL parts only, the rest will still be hardware accelerated.
This is likely going to be just handling the windowing, and possibly the swpascreen.
This will cause it to be cpu intensive, and slow the rendering, but not be as slow as full sw rendering...
I cannot say whether your issue lies with Angstrom as i have not tested it on that in a very long time. Its real quick and easy to setup it with ubuntu (on another sd card, so can switch back to angstrom) so give it a try and find out.
