wine users - Dec 2011 - Re: Replacing X11 backend driver with SDL

I too had been thinking whether it was possible for me to run Wine in a system
which is non X11 by replacing the X11 backend driver with an SDL backend driver.
I guess not since the SDL is incompatible with the X11. However, it would be
nice if someone could come up with a tweak to make it compatible.

a "tweak" ???  you mean a total re-write...

X11 will be replaced by native Quartz driver in the UNforeseeable future ...
