I tested it on an iBook (clam shell, fall 2000, ATI Rage video). There it works, and it is amazingly fast. The hardware acceleration is real. "opengl info" says something about ATI GL libraries. The matlab 3D graphics benchmark is more than 5 times as fast as with the fink xfree86 packages.I have to modify this statement after some more tests. I am now seeing the following, confirmed on several different machines with different grahics card:
I scrolling, as measured by x11perf -scroll500, Apple's X11 is 80% faster than a xfree86-4.2.99 cvs snapshot. The latter is a bit faster than xfree86-4.2.1, and by a factor of at least 6 or 8 faster than xfree86-4.2.0 from a couple of months ago.
In 3D hardware accelerated graphics as measured by matlab's benchmark, Apple's X11 (when it doesn't crash) is actually about 25% *slower* than the xfree86-4.2.99 cvs snapshot and only twice as fast than xfree86-4.2.1. The factor of 5 is with respect to xfree86 from some months ago.
