Why buy something without a supported driver? VESA is usually really slow. Anyway, work is underway to get software rendering workable. It is already working in Fedora rawhide, but no time has been spent on optimization, only to make it work. Next up is checking for speed and seeing if gnome-shell should assist in making it easier (e.g. maybe automatically not show shadows in case it is slow to do so). > Besides, running a 3D desktop using remote X (xdmcp) over the network > I do not say it is possible, or if will overload the 100Mbits network It should just be made more efficient. It is not a 3D desktop though, it just has compositing. -- Regards, Olav _______________________________________________ gnome-list mailing list gnome-list@xxxxxxxxx http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-list
