First of, I totally agree with you, Alexander. But, second, do you mean that it's the case (that an updated port may help Marcus)? You didn't _say_ so but did you assume it? ;-) My point of view is that those ports which use nvidia drivers should work as is. I.e. if I have installed nvidia drivers built with linux support and install a port (say, astro/google-earth) using apropriate variable (WITH_NVIDIA_GL=YES for google-earth) then the port sould work. If it doesn't then it's a bug either at nvidia driver or at our linuxulator (or more wide).
