X/Motif apps need X and Motif libs, and an X desktop, but should not care what desktop they pop out on! In fact, you can switch wm while the app is running. Your only issues are getting compatible behaviors for all the C and Motif calls from Xfree and lesstif or open Motif or such. It seems like it should not be a big deal, but the devil is always in the details. Do your video thingies go below X, or are they just pixelating a window that may be displayed whole or in part on one desktop on parts of one or more displays?
