You know why? Because NVidia keeps it a secret how their cards work :(

You can probably do it with the right browser.

Thanks :) Was the path you took this one:
http://xfree86.org/
http://xfree86.org/support.html
http://www.xfree86.org/cgi-bin/bugform.cgi
And regarding question #1: are you subscribed to this list -- I guess the

(the way the initial contact with users is handled is ... suboptimal ..
I'm trying to gather information to both support that view and to find out
how it should be changed)
