Fact is I had serious crashs caused by the Nvidia opengl driver, although I have to admit that was one year ago and on the other hand I have a Radeon 9000 where opengl works just fine with a normal X installation. I had to drop one "chipset" line into XF86Config-4 for the Radeon to work, but that's nothing compared to the Nvidia stress. Best regards Christian
