JavaFX: Tested/confirmed hardware (GPU) acceleration on Linux

Question

I would like to know if anyone managed to get a working version of JavaFX 2.2 or 8 on Linux with hardware acceleration.

Oracle provides a list of compatible GPUs: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javafx/downloads/supportedconfigurations-1506746.html

But last time I've tried with a modern nVIDIA card and Ubuntu it reverted to software rendering.

Ubuntu 12.04 and nVidia GTX 750 Ti (Official drivers):

www@www-MS-7577:~$ java -Dprism.verbose=true -jar JavaFXApp.jar
Prism pipeline init order: es2 sw
Using platform text rasterizer
Using java-based Pisces rasterizer
Using dirty region optimizations
Not using texture mask for primitives
Not forcing power of 2 sizes for textures
Using hardware CLAMP_TO_ZERO mode
Opting in for HiDPI pixel scaling
Prism pipeline name = com.sun.prism.es2.ES2Pipeline
Loading ES2 native library ... prism_es2
    succeeded.
GLFactory using com.sun.prism.es2.X11GLFactory
(X) Got class = class com.sun.prism.es2.ES2Pipeline
Initialized prism pipeline: com.sun.prism.es2.ES2Pipeline
Maximum supported texture size: 16384
Maximum texture size clamped to 4096
Non power of two texture support = true
