It's funny how KDE and Qt fans say nonsense like this and then complain whenever anyone mentions the horribly mismanaged KDE 4.0 and 4.1 releases...Quote:

So would it be possible for the Wayland+X.org configuration to work on two different graphic cards, one integrated and another one discrete?Quote:

That has been worrying for me on Wayland (and I can't seem to find any info on this).Quote:

Mac OSX can't do that. I just hope Wayland will continue to be client-server. Else, I won't bother, as VNC just doesn't cut it.
Anyone has more info about this?

You can run using indirect glx connection. It has fairly good performance even in wireless g network so if you have better than that connection any opengl application that doesn't take advantage of too new features should work well. You can test it by running some opengl application in your server using LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT=1 enviroment varaible.Quote:

I am willing to start a wikipedia page to detail the differences and similarities between the graphical sides -- windowing and gui in general -- of Mac OSX versus X.org. Does anybody know if such thing exists anywhere?Quote:

True, except their making that testing release and calling it "4.0" was false advertising. As such, it's fair to criticize it for not living up to what a 4.0 release is expected to be (it's expected to build on 3.x...).Quote:

Shush your mouths about it. It's history. KDE released something that most people didn't find useful. Live with it. There is nothing that they could of done to avoid it. It is simply the fundamental reality of what happens with software and rewrites.
It's as obvious as it is blameless.
It's a trade off. A bit of pain for a couple years until the software gets up to speed, then hopefully they'll have something modern and better then what you can get from other places.
