I think Eskil covered those pretty well. Not being able to resize the
application window was what broke the camel's back, as I recall.

You do? Perhaps you have a too-old GPU then ... The output from the
shading language compilation is a bit too verbose, in my opinion, but
I guess it's sometimes useful to have the generated code visible too.

Thanks for your feedback, and for testing the X11 back-end. You can verify
that it builds properly by doing a "ldd" on the binaries; if you don't see
a lot of dependencies, including SDL, it is using X11.
