: There are some very serious issues which come up even getting Xfree to a
: moderate level of acceleration.
How about to a simple level of working? Without any acceleration?
For most people, just having xterms and netscape working is enough.
I'm not a graphics or X person. Could someone who knows SGI's gfx
devices tell us how hard it would be to make the basics work?
Thanks.
