I will try to report this to them. How do you submit bug reports to Nvidia, btw?

I understand this quite well, however please keep in mind that this bug: 1) Is in the drivers at least since March 06 or so when I first tested OSG with my (then) new SLI system. 2) Nvidia releases new Linux drivers every 6 months only and the next release will be probably in February '07 or so (8774 was released in August). There may or may not be a new driver this months, but that's just speculation. 3) Only OSG/Producer seem to be affected - everything else seems to be working fine for me, even games in Linux. Strictly speaking, it is most likely Nvidia's bug however if only OSG has a problem with SLI systems I am not sure how much they will be willing to address it. SLI on Linux doesn't seem to be their highest priority - not everything is supported yet and the stability is not the best neither. However, I will defer this decision to Don and you. I just want to be able to use OSG on the machine I bought for that purpose. > You can always override the default install directory using parameters > passed into make or > use env vars. Try: No, that is not what I meant - I do not want to override the install directory, I would like make install (or installdbg) to install also the debug version of the libs. This doesn't seem to be possible at the moment.
