Few months, or years to have something truly competitive : reinventing the 
wheel of the 25 year old xf86 software is something that takes times ...
And the Beagleboard X15 is a very powerfull machine that can be used for 
desktop, and today X is the best at it. 

I think what really miss is an improved xorg driver for etnaviv drm with 
standard optimizations extension (EXA), I m looking at that, but can't say 
the complexity of the task for now.
