Kirk has a horse?

I can't wait until we're all using gallium, kernel mode setting, and DRI2….
That is going to rock. No more waiting on companies to fix their driver problems.

According to ATI there is nothing wrong with their open gl drivers. Atleast thats what theyve been telling me for
two years of emails now. So I'm a bit surprised they fixed something that does not need fixing? I also noticed there is no more dash dash lines all over the screen anymore either…

According to ATI there is nothing wrong with their open gl drivers, its just my computer setup. They've been telling for two years now. So I'm a bit surpirsed they fixed something that supposedly didn't need fixing. I just tried it and I noticed also there are no dash, dash lines anymore either?

We are having some problems with Nvidia Drivers too. In the Internal benchmarking provided by Blender, With older drivers, the card seems to fly about 20.000 points ( Nvidia 6800 ), With New drivers, a mere 4.000. I've got rid of the new slow drivers and continue using my lovely old one.
