VESA is pretty much by definition unaccelerated.
I thought so too, but I was pointed by one of the Haiku devs to the VBE/AF standard, which apparently is an extension to provide hw acceleration.

Yes, that one, but as I said it's not much implemented anyway, and IIRC requires loading a driver.

Maybe this could help?
