Hi

I recently bought a Raspberry pi and have been using it as a thin client with X2go with the config script found here: http://www.raspberrypi.org/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=36&t=13130

While working ok. X seems to max the cpu as soon as you start pulling windows around and it the experience is quite laggy.
I'm looking for solutions for this. The raspberry does not have hardware accelerated X yet. Is this what is causing it?
Is there a way I can use the hardware OpenGLES 2 directly?

At my workplace we are considering x2go for thin clients and were looking into using the Raspberry pi as a client :-)

What can I do to make it perform better.

cheers
Pascal
