i have to switch off hardware acceleration on the nvidia G72M on my lenovo with plan 9, but i don't notice a problem when using it. (it does use hw cursor.) of course, the 1,253 lines of code in aux/vga/nvidia.c is just to get the device set up. that's the trouble with sophisticated hardware. if your particular one doesn't cause trouble with the hwaccel on, 9/pc/vganvidia.c will use fill and scroll, but that's about it. (hw cursor can be selected separately.)
