Hallo,

Xi-Graphics hat endlich den von vielen erwarteten Treiber fuer
Grafikkarten mit NVidia-TNT Chipsatz fertiggestellt.

Wie immer finden Sie den Patch auf unserem XiG-Mirror unter
ftp://ftp.delix.de/pub/Mirror.ftp.xig.com/updates/accelx/desktop/5.0/intel/

Hier die Ankuendigung von XiG:

> Thanks for using Accelerated-X!
>
> Xi Graphics is pleased to announce fully accelerated support
> for the Diamond Viper V550, which uses the
> nVidia Riva TNT Chipset. An .xqa file is included for generic
> Riva TNT support, but it was tested only on the Viper V550
> card. This update provides fully accelerated support at 8, 16,
> and 24 bits per pixel.
>
> Benchmarking was performed on the Viper V550,
> and, at 24-bit color depth, the results of the test for the
> Accelerated-X server versus the corresponding XFree server
> and Metrolink server are shown below along with the locations
> of the update and its text file.
>
> Accelerated-X Server: Xaccel; 29.5 Xmarks
>
> XFree Server: No Support
