Slightly off topic, but I was able to get a opengl
card to work under linux and call it successfully from Java.
This took about 1.5 days of configuring, between Xfree86 4 and
the particular card. The result is dramatically faster for
textured renders.
Particulars are:
RH6.2,
added Xfree86 4.0.0
Nvidia Geforce2 chip (Elsa card), using their closed-source driver
(an expert told me this is the current fastest card for my application)
Calling thru the latest GL4Java, from several jdks including the
latest 1.3.
Java Swingset and such still run fine but this card does not
speed up java2d significantly.
