Re: [Trisquel-users] 3D and Free Software on Trisquel?

[danieldelahoyde]

Usnica I have a GeForce 7100 GS, it's a few years old now, so I wasn't  
expecting any problems with drivers:  
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GeForce_7_Series#GeForce_7100_Series Also  
because, the current Ubuntu 9.10, installs fine. The Ubuntu beta, probably  
would install using safe graphics mode, but I couldn't be bothered. I'm happy  
with Trisquel.

On another point I've used 3D mode, with the proprietary nVidia drivers, on  
Ubuntu. I find the driver slows the system, and the graphics are slow. I  
always switch back to the free driver. The fancy effects are just not worth  
the performance hit. I'd like to see free 3D drivers in GNU/Linux, although  
it's not a priority for me.
