X is the de-facto-standard for graphics applications in the Unix world. The GGI project aims to support X and increase it's reliability, by providing high-quality, secure video drivers for it.
We believe that letting the X server access the hardware directly is the second best solution and have implemented an X server, which uses the LibGGI as an intermediate layer. We believe this will prove to be more reliable and significantly stabler than X servers that access the hardware directly.
The next public release of GGI will allow you to use traditional X servers and other (typically set-uid) legacy graphics applications.
