Those are some good questions.  From what I understand the Glamo is
fixed-function and supports OpenGL ES 1.1.  As far as changing Xglamo to be
based on X over kdrive, I think to start, it would be best to leave Xglamo
the way it is and just add-in OpenGL ES support, but if there were people
dedicated to getting X support I would vote for it.
