Thanks much

I've read somewhere that 3D acceleration is the default in nvidia's later drivers, though I can't find the document at present, I may have to check the nvidia site in case that's where I read it. I run unreal-tournament 2004 demo and FlightGear with good framerates, observed rather than measured. I checked with glxinfo and xdpyinfo, but didn't see a reference to 3D acceleration, but have a vague memory of seeing it with earlier drivers. I've not used sax2, I just altered the "Driver nv" to "Driver nvidia". Regards Sid.
I don't know if it's the default, but I can say that the 3D acceleration does work on my system (GeForce FX 5600 using Nvidia's 1.0-5336 drivers). SaX claims that the 3D acceleration is not enabled but UT2003 is running just fine. :)
My experience exactly with the FX5200 128M card. I think SaX is looking for something else, so is not able to detect it with the latest drivers. Regards Sid. -- Sid Boyce .... Hamradio G3VBV and keen Flyer Linux Only Shop.
