However, in this case the nv driver will not provide you with
hardware-accelerated OpenGL unless I've missed something significant in the
past few months. NVidia continue to refuse to release full hardware specs
and so we're unfortunately stuck with their binary drivers if we need 3D out
of the card.
I found that building a kernel requires running the Nvidia script again.
Don't the ATI Radeon or Matrox cards work very well? There is built-in
kernel support for those. Even at the expense of a few frames it would be
a much better way to go.
I'm doing barrel rolls now, flying upside down, making u-turns by stalling
in a steep climb. The latter I can do over the airport and then land it.
Usually. <chuckle> Loads of fun! :-)
Whatever happened to the aircraft carrier? And the AI traffic?
