The snow cone-ometer indicates weâre gurgling at approximately 3,674.56 Belgiums per Connery!

| That fine and most reliable periodical
| WorksWithU decided to take a look at the
| nouveau driver. After a fairly innocuous
| introduction, they decided itâd be a great idea
| to do a performance test.
|
| Itâs worth pointing out that they are, at least
| on some level, aware of a rather important
| fact: âTo solve this problem, the cleverly
| named nouveau project was launched a few years
| ago to develop a full-featured, open-source
| video driver for nVidia chips. As its feature
| status chart demonstrates, itâs still maturing
| and doesnât yet offer any real 3D
| functionality, but 2D support is implemented.â
| So, yes, to recap, thatâs quite correct:
| nouveau offers no 3D acceleration.

New X.Org Release Process Has Been Reached

| The developers also want to pull the X.Org drivers back
| into the X Server core, which was done previously
| before their modularization, but they want to put the
| drivers back into core in order to come back to a more
| coherent API. This though will not be happening until
| early 2011 or so (around X Server 1.10).
