Shouldn't they work > with the Mac version (i.e. AGP != AGP?) there support for nvidia hardware is limited due to complete lack of documentation on this proprietary junk. most of the XFree drivers seem to need significant porting work to make them work on other archectures anyway... the only way to deal with this is telling the company you won't do business with them if they refuse to provide documentation, and back that up by buying competing products where documentation is available, such as matrox, and apparently ATI stuff as of recently. that is a bit more of a problem if apple starts shipping nvidia only hardware, if they do that i won't be buying any more macs.... -- Ethan Benson http://www.alaska.net/~erbenson/
