Being a BeOS user (a purely desktop system) and because I code under Linux, I see
XFree86 (v4.1 on my machine) as a user and as a developper. And this is where the problem lies.

Let's look at what I have in front of me: a dual Pentium III at 933Mhz with 512MB of memory, a Radeon 32 AIW, a modified Mandrake 8.0 powered by kernel 2.4.18.
