DRI? AFAIK nvidia uses a closed source kernel interface, but not
DRI.

What does "glxgears" show on your pc? And, do you use the NVidia.com
driver?

Yes,tx. First tell me, if you use gtkglext and ftgl. And then tell
me, what configure options you used. If it's possible, can you also
send me your config.log (via p.m.). And last but not least, can you
send me the output of "ldd [path_to_gnubg]"? Thanks in advance.

Oystein assumes, that we have problems with Nvidia stuff and
glibc-2.3.2. If it really works on freebsd, this could prove us
right.

PS. Can you send your answer cc to Oystein and Jon?
