Hello,

I am using new NVIDIA driver (1.0-1512) on many machines (different
brand, SMP or not) with performer and I have not notice any bug. We have
better stability with this version.
On one machine (Athlon + Geforce 2 Ultra) OpenGL graphics was bad.
Changing NvAGP option to "1" (Use NVIDIA AGP Driver) has resolve the
problem. Better: TuxRacer now work fine on my machine ;-).

So you may try this driver, is you have problems try to put : Option
"NvAGP" "1" in your XF86Config file. (Default behavior of this new
version is to use AGPGart AGP driver instead of NVIDIA one).

Bye.
