Hi all,

I run a server which serves graphics sessions for a small (max. 5)
group of users, currently using RealVNC.
I consider migrating my setup to TurboVNC or TigerVNC, and I would
like to add OpenGL support, using VirtualGL.

To complicate things further, the system providing the user sessions
runs in a XEN virtual host.

   * * *

So, I need some hardware that
  a) Can be successfully virtualized with XEN
  b) Has what VirtualGL needs.

The easiest possibility would be to use the built-in graphics of my
(soon-to-be) motherboard, which is an
Intel GMA 4500 engine.

I know that it's OK for virtualization; the question is whether it can
be used for VirtualGL?
A fast google search suggest that intel drivers has some pbuffer
support; is that sufficient?
Has anybody used it successfully for VirtualGL?

How about the performance? Is one GMA 4500 engine enough for 2-5 users
running Compiz?

Thank you for your help:

   Kristof Csillag
