AIUI, nvidia gives (to the linux world) less information about how to exploit nvidia capabilities than does ATI, and that the linux world is not ignoring information proffered by nvidia. How then is it that linux is intentionally incompatible with nvidia and other software? Or do you refer to driver versioning? (a number of things are screwy with the linux world; nvidia dysfunctionality is not on the list intentionally) /AIUI btw congrats to the OP for solving the problem! ******************************************************************* This email and any files transmitted with it are confidential and intended solely for the use of the individual or entity to whom they are addressed.
