The people running the Matrox G200 GLX development effort are also handling this (I'm on the g200-dev list and can see the commit messsages). The G200 part, at least, works great under FreeBSD, so I'd assume getting the nVidia part to work would be trivial. -lee...however, I don't have a TNT to play with. -- +--------------------------------------------------------------------+ | Lee Cremeans -- Manassas, VA, USA (WakkyMouse on WTnet) | | [email protected] | http://wakky.dyndns.org/~lee | To Unsubscribe: send mail to [email protected] with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
