After a year and a half. After four years of having either broken rendering, or no acceleration at all. It's a pretty big statement on the importance of the drivers if people can't even be bothered to fix them after five and a half years. Will we still be having this conversation in eleven years? > Anyway, you're probably right that adding EXA support isn't worth the > effort for any of these drivers.

Even then, unless you put serious amounts of tuning into it, it's pretty hard to make EXA faster. And can any of this hardware (okay, maybe Rage 128 can) even do multitexturing?
