At best, I would run Xorg on top of wayland, and have the functionality I have now (or most of it) This is for science though :) like the time I installed KDE 4 on my GMA x3000 board about 2-3 months after the worst state they were ever in. [was unstable, and crashed within 5-10 minutes]. Not sure if the problem was KDE (not known for stability at that time 4.0 or 4.1, not sure which), or the git versions of xorg server/mesa/kernel/some other packages. In the end, decided I liked fluxbox (and now openbox) better then KDE, but it was fun :) -- Nathan Coulson (conathan) ------ Location: British Columbia, Canada Timezone: PST (-8) Webpage: http://www.nathancoulson.com -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-chat FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
