Here's some example lines I use for building firestorm on macosx. You'll want to change the variables,strings,and optimizations to fit Dolphin. I hope this helps. A key takeaway is to use "xcodebuild" for command line builds and not make. ./develop.py -t $BTYPE configure -DPACKAGE:BOOL=ON -DVIEW

In the past it has been possible to do accelerated openGL-over-X11 over a network with particular drivers, specifically some versions of the linux NVidia drivers. Still, it's quite exotic, limited, and probably would not result in the effect the original poster intended. On Thu, Jul 14, 2011 at 11
