    Is there any possibility to enable Xsun to USE the GX ?

We at MIT have no plans to produce Sun-specific graphics code (whether
pixrects or anything else).  If someone else develops code and donates
it to us (and it's actually faster :-), we might consider supporting it
in the future.  If for some reason you really don't want to use OpenWindows
to get GX performance, you might also contact Quest; they're saying they
will bring out GX support on an R4 base.
