[Mesa3d-users] Mesa and Nvidia TNT2 card

[Antonio M. <am...@at...>]

Hi,

I am working on an aplication intended to have an extensive use
of OpenGl.
Can anybody please tell me how to use my Nvidia TNT2 card properly, or any
graphics card, to achieve a maximum OpenGl achievement?

Thanks,

Antonio.

Subject: [Mesa3d-users] mesa ATI support

Hello Everyone,
I would like to inquire about about ATI video card support in mesa under
linux 2.4.x. To be specific, I'm contemplating on purchasing a Radeon
8500 card and I work exclusively on linux. I currently have a TNT2 but
dislike the closed-source nature of the driver. ... From what I heard
though the nvidia driver is "stable" with full implementation of OpenGL.
Although, I'm afradi that is a biased opinion from the folks on #nvidia
irc.openprojects.net. So what I'm looking for is a non-biased opinion of
the state of ATI (RADEON 8500) support under linux in the following
criteria:
#1 stability NOTE ----> #1 <-----
#2 development activity for ATI boards (8500 :) )
#3 (/me hangs his head in shame) Gaming performance == Quake3

Thank You VERY MUCH for any comments and/or suggestions,
Mike
