What 3d acceleration can you do with X4 WRT OpenGL? Well, I've gotten things set up to where GLX shows up as an extention and XFree86 claims the glx module is loaded. How much actual "hardware acceleration" is used or taken advantage of by the 4.0.x code is hard to say without looking at it in

Or, even better, 4.0.2 + "suppose-we-managed-to-port-it nvidia kernel module" + nvidia binary 'nvidia' replacement module for XFree-4's 'nv' driver? I mean, will 336/utah be better?? I can't measure vaporware. Supposing that all were to happen, I suppose we'd just have to benchmark it and

Guys, I'm testing the *currently available* bits, I'm not testing anything in 4.0.x we don't actually support right now (erm, how would I?) and all I'm really doing is verifying that the GLX extention is provided in both cases and that the test application is linked against the appropriate

I know very little about how kernel or low level processor stuff works, but shouldn't we be able to do a 4GB process on a 32-bit system? The limitation of 2GB per process should only be an issue if there is some need to use signed numbers, right? Well, that single 4GB of address space is

I'm a little confused at this point. Does X 4 support utah-glx? Or are you referring to the GLX module that comes with X 4? I had to tweak my X 4 The latter. X 4 doesn't support utah-glx. - Jordan To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body
