Thank you.  I am just getting started with Linux and its underlying class
libraries. That is a great start :)

Q: Why should you replace the libglx.so?
A: The S/W rendering API > 1.2 is not supported well, so need to degrade to
1.2. You can check it with `glxinfo`. The server side glx version is 1.4
currently and should be 1.2 for S/W rendering.
  In the latest image, server side glx version is downgraded by default.
Please check.

Q: Why should you do `chmod +S /usr/bin/Xorg`
A: In a virtual machine, it uses vesa driver. But MeeGo uses non-root X and
vesa driver doesn't works well in this mode. So let the X behaves as root.
