Hi Steve,
I have not played around with it more than, compiling and passing a few test
containers through the api... headless ;-) I have a GT240 and a onboard 4xxx
something. Due to the incompatibility between proprietry nvidia and ati xorg
glx implementations having them installed at the same time is a PITA.
I should get around to playing a bit more with it, but my flatmates get
pissy about the fact I turn the machine that runs the tv/network and
projector into a dev box for days on end ;).
BTW as a side note am using Gallium and xorg 1.8 dev (xorg-edgers on ubuntu)
on my laptops which are nv110 and gfx8600's with mostly complete accell
using completely open source drivers... and I can tell you that it works
brilliantly.
