Personally I want something like X11 with OpenGL support and > Yes, there are plans to provide 3D support in Xfree86 using Mesa . It'd certainly be nice to get 3D support under X.

I mean, like the sound automatically going to your local machine, even though you are logged in through ssh to another machine, and are running a sound application there. Just like the graphics is automacically transfered by setting DISPLAY right (which ssh does for us, as we know). And explain "NCD's nas"? :-) There are six unknown letters in there I don't get. What is "NCD", and what's "nas"? :-) > We should be able to render VRML in a window using Voodoo based boards > just read about it in the Mesa web page.
