It's interesting but it looks like he's basing his code on the old UTAH
GLX code, so I'm not sure if he'll be able to support anything newer
than the GeForce1 gpu. It would be great if nVidia could release the
specs for their old cards, but given their track record it's quite
unlikely. You can always get an ATI card :-)

I used to run BeOS 4.5 as my main desktop for a while and there are some
ideas from BeOS that might be adapted to DragonFly. I'm thinking rich
metadata mainly and some parts of their API.
