Hello! I'm quite interested in having true 3D hardware acceleration on my ASUS AGP-V3800Magic video card based on TNT2 M64 chip, while running XFree86-4.0.2 on FreeBSD 4.2-STABLE. I've been searching USENET, mail-archives, web, and all I was able to find was: * information on www.nvidia.com about binary XFree modules and kernel module (for linux only) * the source for linux kernel * binary XFree modules (replacing xfree's native 'nv' -> 'nvidia') * people saying that there's some undergoing work about porting linux source to FreeBSD so it's possible to use proprietary nvidia's modules for XFree (oh gee, how happy I am with their module architecture) So, my question is, what's the current status of this initiative? Is there any pre-alphas or whatever I might try already? I will appreciate any information with regard to this subject. 10x. ./danfe To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
