Hello all, I'm user of FreeBSD, Solaris and Linux doing Administration work and as well 3D programming sometimes. I am trying to get your oppinions related with 3D/Xserver under FreeBSD - Accelerated X is a product from www.xig.com which is cool and runs without any problems. Support offered by them is really professional and cool. They now have Summit version of the same product which comes with OpenGL libraries and it is charged for specific video card ( example: if you have Radeon 8500 then you have to pay around 100USD some time limited offer and you get the drivers for that card. If you have another card you need a different driver and might cost different) Now Summit is only available for Solaris Intel and Linux Intel. I have several times tried to get the version for FreeBSD but xig's answer was without a minimal interest they would not provide support and development for Summit OpenGL on FreeBSD Question: Is anybody here interested to setup a list where people could sign and I could drop it to the main support guy, Bryan Chambers ? At least doing so we could see if there is any interest in OpenGL under FreeBSD and more possibilities than XFree86 as a X Server. People which are willing to pay could as well keep small market for products which runs under FreeBSD. What do you guys think ? stefan To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-advocacy" in the body of the message
