SDKs - glX and X11/DGA
X11/DGA
- Direct Graphic Access
- Useful for getting mouse and keyboard events
- DGA also provides direct framebuffer access but cannot be used simulataneously with OpenGL/Mesa
- Rumoured to have low latency than similar Xlib calls
- Same API as Xlib
- No joystick support - have to use kernel ioctl/file descriptors directly
