Why kdrive ?

[Abelenda]

Hi I just recieved an interesting mail in the Xorg MailingList this was
the contents :

So here's my question, if the memory footprint of kdrive is the same as
the full xorg, why choose kdrive over the full xorg ?

There might be interesing features in the full server that aren't there
in kdrive. Plus I've read here that the X driver has got duplicate code
in the X driver from the framebuffer, so there's no really gain in term
of size of the driver either...

So here's my question if I am totally wrong or asked a totally stupid
question I am sorry, as I don't know all the implications.
