Thanks for asking - I knew Ben was planning to do this, but didn't
realize he actually had yet.

We're not mainly targeting things like games at first, but the 3D
desktops: compiz and gnome-shell particularly. I think we would
definitely be interested in reports if they don't work. But I'll check
in with Ben and see what info would be needed. Thanks.
