Well, you do need accel enabled for some games. The NVIDIA driver that is
open-source is just a 2D driver. The 3d is a secret, binary-only program...
Look in the archives of www.mandrakeforum.com for ?NVIDIA Driver Nightmare".
A couple of replies to the posts have links to sites that explain how to
configure those cards for that proprietary driver. Obviously, since we
cannot support it, we can't include it.
