Hmmmm...that's odd. I'm seeing absolutely zero effect on my GF2MX200 w/24bpp. Which CPU and what depth level are you running? At some point we really ought to have a video profile routine on startup (or one time anyway) to build a set of defaults per system for all the nice opengl features being used. It'd be a shame to hide the good stuff from new users with overly conservative defaults.
