As far as I know, currently none. A port to Linux with svgalib is in the
works. That seems the most likely to work, since Allegro makes heavy use of
x86 assembly and is rather speed dependent. I don't know of any plans to
port it to X. However, the graphics library `jlib' is (I believe) portable
to X, and I think newer versions of GRX support X as well.
