I read this article just a few days ago: http://www.freesoftwaremagazine.com/columns/the_new_xorg_features It gives general information about GEM (I did not know anything about it before). Some pointers are also available on wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graphics_Execution_Manager This may help you to figure out what is GEM. For your second questions however, I have no answer to provide.
