Well. One of the reasons I upgraded to testing was to try to get rendered
fonts, to have a better display (it works well, and it's really nicer,

Sure, but for non texturing (i.e. wireframe draws and 'plain' colors),
it's much better than pure software.
Is the DRM/Render exclusion still valid for an Elite3D card? It seems that
on my Ultra2, the XFree86 driver will be the sunffb one, wether I have a
Creator or an Elite card.
