On the link you supplied it says, "Cards below this point are not well supported for 3D, but do have accelerated 2D 9500 denotes a R300 based card." I've tried putting in "ati" in the xorg.conf as the driver and never been able to get 3D acceleration to work. (I think the r300 driver is called "radeon" or "ati" by xserver, yes? I've tried both but not too recently. Cheers, Jonathan
