This was one of the reasons I was hoping Sun was
looking at Xscreensaver v4.22. I did a QA of Mesa
demos and Xscreensaver in which it is interesting to
see how the various OpenGL-like drivers and libraries
perform.

I see more people compiling open source code against
the Nvidia drivers so will be a good test of things as
well.
