If you start X with 'xinit' or 'startx' and do _not_ have an X startup

Is anyone out there using 3D graphics cards with Linux? The only one I
know about is the Matrox Millenium that works with Accellerated X.

I have just discovered that there are some button functions missing.
The menu from the top-left corner does not appear when I click on the
top-left button. Also no list of windows when I click on the right mouse
button.
