I'm working on porting Hildon Desktop to current Clutter and GNOME3
framework and I have an issue with Clutter.

Recent versions of clutter do not work with Mesa LLVMpipe software
renderer at all. This makes debugging clutter-based window manager very
hard.

When I was working on old Hildon Desktop based on Clutter 0.8 I was
testing it under Xephyr or second XOrg screen on another virtual
console. Both these attempts use software renderer and do not work with
current clutter. Running simple clutter tests apps (tests/interactive)
does not work in this scenario too. Ie. test-cairo-flowers displays
first frame and freezes.

Do you have any ideas how to test a clutter based window manager?
So far I came up only with idea of two machines, one for development
over ssh (with other desktop), and second for actual testing. :-)
