X11 isn't even remotely dead on Linux. It's being used all over the place.

Certainly not on Amiga hardware.

If you re-read above, you might figure out this is about X11 on Linux on the m68k Amiga platform, specifically.

Which is broken, and has been for years now.

Whereas it works on Netbsd, thanks to patches written by Netbsd developers.

I am hopeful they will eventually be upstreamed to XLibre.
