1 Hi,
2 I'm a happy aiglx+beryl user. There are a bunch of opengl apps
3 (celestia, google earth, stellarium) that I'd want to use but do not
4 play nice with beryl using opengl (e.g. stellarium has unreadable fonts).

6 So I googled a bit and I found that you can bypass that simply by
7 launching apps on another X server using xinit (xinit
8 /usr/bin/stellarium -- :1). But if I do that the new xserver has not
9 direct rendering (checked with glxinfo).

11 Where can the problem be?
