Yes, its their own OpenGL support. Looks like the binary compatibility between Mesa and OpenGL needs to be sorted out between the XF4 development team and Nvida/SGI. The nvidia driver is version 0.9.5, maybe we see a agpgart/Mesa compatible one with version 1.0 and XF4.0.2 -- Due to the fact of excessive spamming from the domains msn.com, hotmail.com, aol.com, yahoo.com and mail.com all e-mail sent to me from this locations will be immediately deleted! - Without reading.
