Looking Glass wasn't opened until recently because Sun was thinking that
this could very well go against Vista's Aero or Apple's Aqua/Quartz, and
provide the glitzy GUI platform for its own OS line -- Solaris. However,
when Novell (and David Reveman) publicly released Xgl and then incorporated
it seamlessly with SLED 10, Sun did not see any reason to hide it any longer
thus Looking Glass going open source.

Requirements
Operating System
LINUX/SOLARIS
Linux x86: Most modern linux distributions should work.
Solaris x86: Supported on Solaris x86 S10_b74 (or later).
CPU 1.4 GHz or faster recommended
RAM 512MB recommended
Graphics Card
3D accelerated graphics card, with at least 32MB VRAM and driver
support for OpenGL, version 1.3 or greater (LG3D may run with OpenGL
1.2, but 1.3 is highly recommended). 24bit display depth is required
in order for the X11 integration work correctly.
Linux x86: For Nvidia devices you must use at least the following
driver version: 1.0-8756 (or later). Refer to this for important
information on how to configure Nvidia cards for LG3D. Some graphics
cards require special configuration in order to run LG3D. For device
driver configuration instructions for specific cards refer to:

Looking Glass
Solaris x86: At the time of this writing, the only type of graphics
cards with OpenGL support on Solaris x86 are certain Nvidia cards (see
below). You must use at least the following driver version: 1.0-8756
(or later). Refer to this for more information. Currently only the
following Nvidia graphics devices are supported by the Solaris x86
