Hi,

You are very outdated about X.Org. Read the article by Jon Smirl about
The State of Linux Graphics. I think that this have all the answears to
your questions.

This was removed from freedesktop, but you can find a copy in:
http://jonsmirl.googlepages.com/graphics.html

Search a little for informations before say what you say. A lot of
things is happening with X Window System and all this is being noticed
in a lot of ways. Do you read any site about linux/tech news?
