Das Project Looking Glass hat eine erste Beta Version rausgegeben. Allerdings hört sich ein Zitat aus dem Getting Started eher nach Alpha Version an:

NOTE: This mode is still very much a work in progress. To date, only a few X11 applications run bug-free in this mode. There is still a lot of debugging work left to do. Important applications such as mozilla, staroffice, evolution, realplayer, and most GNOME applications still have significant problems. We are actively addressing these problems. Please file issues on any problems you find.

Erschreckend finde ich auch die Hardware Anforderungen, dagegen sieht Doom 3 ja bescheiden aus…
