You're referring to the GLX_EXT_texture_from_pixmap extension.
Not solely. Kindly refer to *both* the links posted earlier that you
have trimmed off.
Of course
there will be sharing but ultimately they are two competing methods of
improving X.
Ya. Thats good and we have other approaches like XeGL too. Eventually
the best code wins out. Thats how it works.
AIGLX, AFAIK just appeared a few weeks ago. Xgl has been in
the works for a few years, and there's alot of thought behind it.
Code needs to be out and peer reviewed. Thats what matters.
AIGLX appears to me to be all eye candy. It's been put together last minute
as an answer to Xgl.
Really? You might want to refer to the project page at
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/RenderingProject/ for the ideas behind the
project. Eye candy isnt specified as a goal at all. You might also want
to look at Xorg development a bit more if you think these efforts are
new by any means.
