So fine, code up some direct rendering

Posted by: cornstalk on July 17, 2003 09:23 PM
Personally I like X for its power, versatility and network transparency, but I think many of the comments on this thread miss the point that X and some sort of direct rendering are not incompatible. Want to use X? Type "startx". Want to use direct rendering? Get a direct rendering system working and start it from the command line.

There is already work going on in this direction. See www.cosmode.com for an example.
