They are proprietary software so I prefer to avoid them. 
Anyway, I don't know which kind of graphic hardware I have 
on this PC ;)
On my laptop I will be more careful about X and GL.

You can pay someone to improve the documentation, or to 
translate it (btw, the italian translation is poor in my 
humble opinion). Or, you can just put them in your pocket 
and feel happy. Or you can forward the cash to the Free 
Software Foundation and help GNU!

about something like it.

Pheraps you should invest more energy into this kind of 
stuff (website included). You give to the world an 
excellent and valuable piece of software!
I'm sure the world would be happy to give something back.
Well, at least the part of the world with a credit card :)
