Xgl - the root technology of an OpenGL based Xserver, this is generic
and isn't ported to any particular hardware.

Xegl - a specific instance of Xgl running on Mesa/OpenGL with EGL extensions
Xglx - a specific instance of Xgl running inside the current Xserver using glx

You probably want
Xegles - which would be Xgl running on OpenGL-ES with EGL extensions.

Xegles doesn't exist yet. When Xegl is debugged someone will probably
take that code and make Xegles out of it.

EGL extensions are being proposed back to Khronos. They allow you to
do things like set the mode and blank the display that aren't covered
in the current EGL API. This is being discussed on dri-egl .
