Yes. Didn't you know? It was announced here. However, it doesn't run
all that great, because DGA isn't supported on the TGA X server. And
apparently, getting support for it is a non-trivial tast, it seems (At
least according to Jay Eastbrook)
(I thought DGA was just letting the CPU access video frame buffer memory
directly, but apparently there are other magicks, of which I am
unaware.)
I think the NetBSD camp is working on free X support (free as in
source-freedom), but currently they don't have acceleration, which means
that Jay's X is about ten times faster.
