Okay. *excited* Are you saying that there is an opensource 3d driver for
the NVIDIA videocards? I've just installed a NVIDIA TNT2 Vanta card, and
while I like the 3D acceleration, I'm sick of it occasionally taking out
my xserver. I improved things a while back by upgrading from KDE2.1 to
KDE2.2, and again by upgrading the glibc's. (I'm running a hybrid
LM8.0/Cooker system - with buggy packages in 8.0 replaced by more up-to
date packages from Cooker.) The biggest gripe I have with the NVIDIA
drivers is that they don't seem to build against the post 8.0 kernels.
*sighs* Maybe it's time I upgraded from X4.0.3 to X4.1?
