Sorry for the delay in replying... my cooking & wine was so good that I never did go back & test last night :-) No issues with the Sony w/3Dfx. Also fired up the other nVidia machine this morning & tested: $ sudo lspci -v 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation NV25GL [Quadro4 900 XGL] (rev a3) Subsystem: nVidia Corporation Device 0138 Flags: bus master, 66MHz, medium devsel, latency 248, IRQ 16 Memory at fd000000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=16M] Memory at d0000000 (32-bit, prefetchable) [size=128M] Memory at dc780000 (32-bit, prefetchable) [size=512K] [virtual] Expansion ROM at fe9e0000 [disabled] [size=128K] Capabilities: [60] Power Management version 2 Capabilities: [44] AGP version 2.0 Kernel driver in use: nvidia Kernel modules: nvidia-96, nvidiafb, rivafb, nouveau Set fonts to 20, etc., etc. and used today's builds: Build identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux i686; rv:2.0b3pre) Gecko/20100727 SeaMonkey/2.1a3pre and no issues on that one either. That one has full enhanced effects (compiz, cube, etc., etc) turned on, same as the desktop w/intel mobile chipset. Can you provide the output of the video section of: $ sudo lspci -v _______________________________________________ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
