Allright, ive got something on topic for once... *grin*

ive been playing with OpenGL support under Linux/X with drivers for the
TNT/TNT2 working fine.  However, I noticed that currently these drivers
do not support direct access to the acceleration hardware, so
performance
is incredibly low from where it should be.

I think SuSE is working on enhanced drivers to handle this, as well as
SGI
perhaps.. but I cant seem to find any working code, or code in general.

So, my questions is this: Does anyone have OpenGL support for direct
hardware
access in XFree86 or even a commercial product?
