RE: Side topic - X11 course.



 I am interested in XFree >=  4.0, not any top lavel library.
As a start, we need to understand a bit the protocol, the interfaces between
the server and the driver, the GLX, MESA and DRI ...
 I would like to develop a new DRI and tweak some other things. I don't care
about the X11 version, I believe that old one is also good since our main
interest
is the OpenGL, X only host it.
