+Q: When I change to opengl-mode, the screen gets white and I can't do anything! I have to kill the program.
+   What can I do to restore the normal mode?
+
+A: You can delete "cgenius.cfg" or change it the way you need it! Just put "opengl = 0" and it should normal
+   with your previous settings. I'm going to fix that soon! The white screen means, that your graphic card
+   doesn't support NPOT Textures, which is required. A video card with OpenGL 2.0 or later support should not
+   have that problem anymore.
+   
+Q: Why not to use POT-Textures?
+A: Because it requires more memory to write, and the game would get slower than with software rendering.
+   I'm working on a new method to get it working with POT Textures and faster, but for now I cannot
+   support it. 
+
+Q: Commander Genius is slow? Please help!
+A: You can increase the frameskip under settings->video or you can enable automatic frameskip, what is very
+   recommended for any system. OpenGL may also help, but you must have a gfx-card that support NPOT-Textures.
+   (OpenGL 2.0 or later). Try to lower the resolution, a lower filter, or decrease some stuff in the sound section.
+   Stereo sound requires additional calculations than mono sound. There are many things you can do, to speed up
+   the program.
