Yes we are. On Quadro and enthusiast class equipment. CentOS 5 works fine, but we haven't done any sufficient CentOS 6 testing because other software vendors in Engineering are still not certified for the platform. What kind of problems are you having? Perhaps some of our findings will still apply.
YES! Thank you very much to all! Following your advice, I just plugged in a dedicated video card, added proprietary drivers, and now it works fine on CentOS 5! This list is wonderful!! :-)
